While many insurance companies provide e-claim services, do you know the procedures and how long the process is? Making a claim is simple at Cigna with the e-claim service of MyCigna. You could get to know more about e-claiming under your VHIS policy.

Every medical plan has a benefit limit. However, it is expected that medical expenses exceed the limit when there is a medical emergency. For Cigna VHIS Series Flexi Plan (Superior), all eligible expenses incurred during treatment courses are covered with an annual benefit limit of HK$ 30 million.
