HKVHIS Launches Impartial Comparison Platform to Compare Over 400 VHIS Plans

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 30 June 2023 - Insurance is an indispensable part of risk management in life. However, for policyholders, choosing the most suitable medical insurance is not easy.

There are many insurance companies and products in the market, and policyholders need to spend a lot of time and effort to make wise decisions.

To solve these problems, HKVHIS has officially launched a fair and impartial insurance comparison platform, aiming to provide objective, transparent, and fair comparisons of Voluntary Health Insurance Scheme (VHIS) products. This allows policyholders to easily compare the VHIS plans of various insurance companies and make the most informed decisions, providing the best possible protection for themselves and their families.

Medical insurance can be confusing, VHIS is no exception

The insurance market faces many challenges and problems, such as a lack of understanding among policyholders about the products and services offered by insurance companies, leading to difficulty in making informed decisions. In addition, there is an issue of information asymmetry, where policyholders often cannot obtain enough information to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different insurance companies and products.

Furthermore, some insurance companies may use complex terms and conditions in their insurance policies, making it difficult for policyholders to understand and affecting their choices. More importantly, there is an issue of price opacity, where policyholders find it difficult to obtain the true insurance price and, therefore, cannot make informed decisions.

Even though the VHIS standard plan terms and premiums are similar, there are still significant differences between flexible plans. Even different flexible plans offered by the same insurance company can have vastly different coverage, exclusions, and premiums, making direct comparison difficult.

Recognizing that policyholders need more information and transparency to make the best insurance choices, HKVHIS's fair and impartial insurance comparison platform is committed to resolving these issues by focusing on comparing VHIS products and providing more information and transparency to policyholders, making it easier for them to compare different insurance companies and products.

Insurance needs vary across different life stages

It is important to understand that people of different age groups have different insurance needs. For example, young people may be more concerned about critical illness insurance and life insurance, while older people may be more interested in medical insurance and accident insurance. Therefore, choosing the right insurance products and services is crucial for people of different age groups.

For those who are not familiar with insurance, they may not know how to apply for insurance or how to arrange their insurance portfolio. In response to this, in addition to introducing and comparing different insurance companies' VHIS plans, HKVHIS also provides appropriate insurance advice for policyholders of different age groups. For example, what insurance to buy when getting married, how to help parents buy VHIS, and what insurance is most needed at age 60, etc.

For those who are not familiar with insurance, doing sufficient research before applying for insurance is particularly important. HKVHIS provides comprehensive insurance information to policyholders, helping insurance beginners better understand insurance products and services, and make informed insurance decisions.
