How is billing and claim settled in the event of treatment at a hospital?

In the event you need to make a claim, check your policy to see if you’re covered and what documentation is needed. You can request a claim form by quoting your insurance certificate number. Claims can be made while traveling or after returning home, but always adhere to claim requirements.

For medical claims, the Assistance Service will confirm if your treatment or expenses are covered and can liaise with hospitals. For minor expenses, it might be easier to pay yourself and submit a claim later. Keep all receipts and medical reports.
