Health Insurance provider for MM2H pgm?
In connection with the MM2H pgm, can someone recommend an insurance company in Malaysia who can quote a reasonable price for annual health insurance - based on a male in his early 50's.
Kind regards

There is no scheme here like the NHS in UK, and policies generally cover for major illness / surgeries , hospital stay etc. For "normal" illness, you just walk into a clinic to see a GP, and pay for consultation and medicine.

Someone else (offline) mentioned ING Insurance - so, between both of you, I have more than enough to shop around with!.
Again, many thanks.

Here is a table of the various programmes and prices for healthcare for expats; it has prices for a single male (non-smoker) aged 65 but you would need to get a specific quote for your needs and location....there is a check-list so you can contact the companies directly:

Manulife (in KL) has already quoted me 'minimum sum assured is about RM1100.00 for
standard risk'.You also get a 14 day 'cooling-off' period.
