"Deductible" is the amount the policyholder must pay out of pocket within the policy year when making a claim with Bowtie. The remaining medical expenses are then compensated by Bowtie up to the coverage limit of the plan.

If the insured person has a Bowtie Pink plan with a $20,000 deductible and the total medical expenses are $70,000, we will cover $50,000
Total medical expenses – Deductible = Coverage
$70,000 – $20,000 = $50,000

The Bowtie VHIS Standard and Flexible plans do not come with a deductible, whereas Bowtie Pink’s deductible is calculated annually. For instance, if the policy starts on December 1, 2021, from December 1, 2021, to November 30, 2022 (the first policy year), you must first bear HK$20,000 of medical expenses (including amounts claimed from your company’s group medical insurance), and after which Bowtie compensates for the remaining eligible medical expenses.

Additionally, we recommend that even if your medical expenses are lower than the deductible for your Bowtie Pink plan, you should still submit all hospitalization/surgery-related medical receipts and proof of reimbursement from other insurance companies (if applicable) to Bowtie. If the expenses are eligible medical expenses, they will be counted towards the deductible you have paid for that policy year with Bowtie, reducing the remaining deductible you need to pay for the same year.
