Compulsory Medical And Health Insurance
It is compulsory for each student entering Malaysia to study to have medical insurance. All International Students of University of Malaya must be covered by a locally purchased Medical and Health Insurance (‘Medical Insurance’) appointed by the University.
Insurance Coverage Extension
Students are reminded that it is compulsory for them to have a valid medical insurance package throughout the period of study. International students who’s medical and health insurance cover period expires prior to the expiry of their existing student pass are required to top up/extend their insurance. The insurance top up amount should be sufficient to cover them until the expiry of their existing student pass or a maximum of 12 months from the insurance start date, whichever is lower.
Reimbursement
The medical expenses will be on reimbursement basis (pay and claim) subject to the policy Terms, Conditions and Exclusions. Please complete/fill up the Hospital Claim Form (where necessary) and submit the relevant documents as required in the “claim checklist” that attached to the claim form.
