YOU ARE STILL INSURED EVEN YOU DON'T BUY ANY INSURANCE PLAN.

Does the sentence above sound weird?

When a person doesn't buy insurance like medical card and personal accident, he is still insured. Why? It is because he is the insurance company. He pays his medical bills himself.

WHY SHOULD EVERY CONSUMER BUY MEDICAL CARD?

We can be hospitalized due to a critical illness and an accident. An accident can happen any time to anyone. As we all know, a private hospital is a very realistic organization. If we don't have enough cash, the doctors there will not save our life.

We can go to a government hospital. The medical bill there is very economical. However, we need to wait for a long time before we get a treatment. When we are injured seriously, do we have the time and patience to wait? If the answer is no, every consumer should have at least one medical card.

Of course, a medical card doesn't guarantee us an admission to all hospitals without a deposit in Malaysia like what I have explained previously in my post titled WILL A HOSPITAL ACCEPT OUR MEDICAL CARD AS A GUARANTEE OF ADMISSION TO THE HOSPITAL WITHOUT A DEPOSIT? (March 17, 2009). But, it at least helps us to admit to all of the panel hospitals of an insurance company without a deposit.
