We are delighted to introduce a new and innovative product benefit: 60+ Care.
Effective 26 September 2016, senior Gold and Platinum plan customers who have selected the International Outpatient module will be provided with outpatient cover for five common pre-existing conditions.
60+ Care provides coverage for certain pre-existing conditions, allowing customers to maintain their condition and lead a healthier lifestyle. We believe that the new 60+ Care benefit, coupled with the fact that there are no age restrictions on our plans, makes Cigna Global Health Options a very competitive option for senior clients.
