My Take:<\/b><\/h2>\n
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n
\nA. Kaiser is definitely not a scam<\/b> and therefore regulated by the government.
\nQuoting Kaiser Website :
\n\u201cThe Healthcare Industry is a highly regulated industry. Before any company can be licensed it has to fully comply with all the government requirements to make sure it is fully secured and can deliver its benefits to its clients. It is regularly monitored by the regulatory government agencies.

\nKaiser International Healthgroup Inc. is accredited by the department of Health as an HMO. It is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a health care provider and broker for other health care companies.<\/p>\n
\nKaiser’s Board of Directors is seasoned experts in the Medical field services and the health care Industry. Headed by its President and CEO Dr. Ramon B. Abragan, Jr..<\/p>\n
\nKaiser is registered with SEC and has an authorized capitalization of Php 160M. It has fully complied with all the SEC regulations. It is also approved by Department of Health to operate as an HMO. The Investment and funds are managed by the top leading financial Institutions in the Industry.<\/p>\n
\nYes, a plan holder or member may upgrade his plan within 30 days from the member’s effectivity date. The member may buy another plan only upon full payment of his policy which is on the 6th year.<\/p>\n
\nThe member can avail of these two outpatient benefits after paying fully paying the first year’s premium. E.g. If his mode of payment is annual, then he can avail immediately after receiving his member’s kit containing his ID, benefit and dental card, provider directory, guide book and your schedule of benefits with the contract provisions.<\/p>\n
\nThe member shall be required to sign an amendment form and the daughter signs a new application for membership form and submit it to his IMG representative\/offices or to Kaiser office located respectively at the 3rd and ground floor of King’s Court I Building along 2129 Chino Roces Avenue in Makati City.<\/p>\n
\nYes. You must stay within the network at least during the accumulation or Paying Period. However, on the 6th year onwards, you can avail of your medical needs using your own set of providers and then file for reimbursement within your allowable health benefit.<\/p>\n
\nIf the plan has approved term insurance coverage, the plan is transferable to the primary beneficiary. Kaiser shall pay the principal amount of the term insurance equivalent to the member’s long-term care benefit Php 100,000. If the cause of death is an accident, another Php 100,000 shall be paid.<\/p>\n
\nWhy should I buy a Kaiser health care plan when my family and I are now covered by my husband’s employer healthcare plan?<\/p>\n
\nYour family coverage with the employer’s healthcare plan is given to your husband as part of his employee benefit and continues to be available as your husband is employed with the company. However, by the time your husband resigns or retires from the company, this companies healthcare plan benefit stops!<\/p>\n
\nThere is no such thing as RISK FREE investment<\/b>, we take risk in order for us to gain. I cannot promise that the company will still be there after we became old, but one thing is for sure. I am also a member of Kaiser and I believe that the company can fulfill in his promise. And if I will not get this kind of investment, I am sure that I will have problem when I get old. So better take the risk of paying for my long term health care than a sure looser when I get old. It is up to you to decide.<\/p>\n
\nRider can be purchased only within two (2) years upon the effectively of your plan. KAISER have a separate application form for this and could also be paid in SPOT CASH or within FIVE YEAR PERIOD.<\/p>\n
\nPlease note that each plan is solely for the\u00a0use\u00a0of the planholder, therefore availment of the benefits cannot be used by your beneficiaries. However, Kaiser have an added service which they call Family Assistance Service where your family member within the 1st degree of consanguinity can use your membership and avail of the rates which is being accorded to us by our hospital providers.<\/p>\n
\nRequirements<\/p>\n
\nOnce the plan matures, you will be given with a VISA Card, where you being given a credit line equivalent to your Long Term Health Care Benefits. Technically you CAN USE IT FOR\u00a0ANYONE, ANYWHERE AND ANYTHING<\/p>\n
