Does anyone know of a good Health/Medical Insurance Plan? The one I have at work stinks.

Depends on what you mean by 'good'. 5* or basic? You need to give more info on what cover you need and what you're prepared to pay. For example do you want a policy that pays your outpatient costs as well as hospital-stay fees? Only in Hong Kong or worldwide? All sorts of things to consider - ring Kwiksure to get an idea of different plans and Google AXA PPP, BUPA etc. Also, do a search for previous posts on this subject.

I'm looking for outpatient and hospitalization costs. Probably worldwide (Canada), but I'd have to look at the package.

I would recommend either Bupa's Gold Plan or Blue Cross' Taipan Plan - both are expensive but good coverage. Bear in mind, there any medical insurance will not cover you for pre-existing conditions and certain conditions within a period after inception.

There are cheaper policies available, with just as good if not better cover. Cover for Canada could be a problem, but there are policies that do not include/link/lump it with the USA making the premium 3 times more expensive.

Let me know if you want further details
