Overview
Inpatient Health Insurance Plans
CCW Global Insurance Brokers offers a range of Hong Kong health insurance plans which provide comprehensive inpatient coverage.
Inpatient coverage will normally form the core of any medical insurance policy in Hong Kong, and you will typically have to purchase this type of protection in order to access more extensive Hong Kong Health Insurance Coverage Benefits.
Overview
Hong Kong Medical Insurance Plan
A Hong Kong medical insurance plan which includes an inpatient coverage benefit will protect you against the costs of receiving healthcare treatment where an overnight stay in a hospital is a medical necessity.
Going to a private hospital in Hong Kong can be extremely expensive. In fact, Hong Kong is the second most expensive place in the world to receive private healthcare, after the USA. This means that any medical condition requiring extensive hospitalization can be very costly – to such an extent that many people will be unable to bear the burden of the costs associated with inpatient treatment out-of-pocket.
While major medical emergencies and conditions which require inpatient medical care do not happen often, the chances that you will require intensive overnight care at a hospital increase as you age and a single round of serious inpatient treatment can be more expensive than all the doctor’s bills you have ever paid in your entire life.

Considerations
Factors Impacting Inpatient Insurance
Inpatient Insurance Deductibles
Choosing to include a deductible on your Hong Kong inpatient insurance coverage can mean a significant reduction in your overall policy premium. CCW offers inpatient-only health insurance plans with a very high deductible which are typically designed to be used in the event of a catastrophic medical emergency – these plans are normally known as Catastrophe Policies.
While the high deductible means that they will not normally be suitable for everyday healthcare, the coverage is in place in the event of a significant medical emergency without an extremely high premium.
Inpatient Insurance Coverage Areas
Hong Kong health insurance policies from CCW can allow you to select exactly where in the world you would like to receive protection under the plan. Whether you would like to only have your coverage in Hong Kong, or you want a policy which provides Global protection, we can provide a range of options for your needs.
Additional Health Insurance Coverage Benefits
Inpatient health insurance is fairly limited in its scope, only providing protection against medical treatment which requires an overnight stay in a hospital. If you would like to receive additional coverage benefits under your plan, CCW can provide options for Outpatient, Dental, and even Emergency Evacuation Coverage.
Choosing to add additional coverage benefits to your Hong Kong medical insurance policy can give you more protection against healthcare threats than simple hospitalization coverage.
