Great Eastern Life Malaysia launched a new product early this year - MediCare 100. Most health plans in the market only cover the life assured up to age 70. Medicare 100 is designed to meet your changing health needs and protects you up to age 100. What’s more, your coverage will increase by 10% each year until a maximum of 200%*. This will help cushion the effects of inflation on the value of the plan.

For easy illustration, I will list down the main features, benefit and premium of a 30 years old male, non smoker eligible to purchase MediCare 100.
