Personal Medical Case Management is all about the reassessment of the medical case, planning, coordination, implementation and on-going supervision, to ensure best quality care.
As an AIA Health Insurance member you’ll be supported by your local personal medical case manager, a medical coordinator nurse and a 24/7 service centre. Your case manager will review your personal medical situation in detail, including any diagnosis or existing treatment plans. You will then receive a personal medical recommendation, based on the collective knowledge of an expansive network of leading local and international specialists; giving you peace of mind that you will receive the best medical advice.
