Q: Health insurance recommendations?

I recently changed jobs, the new one doesn't provide health insurance :c 

 

Any recommendations for personal plans? I want full coverage (except maternity). I looked up a couple of different ones online but I made the mistake of giving my phone number and I'm getting bombarded with sales calls... 

 

Cheers!

I have PingAn for critical disease and China Taiping for accident. 

Be aware that Chinese critical disease insurance usually includes a savings/retirement plan. You pay it for 20 years and from then on, you don't have to pay more, you can get your money back if you want.

I do not know a recommendation for Chinese Health Care. But The US If you have Obama's affordable Health Care insurance it will cost you 28,800 rmb a year with 30,000 rmb deductible. You can go to your doctor twice a year and still pay for most of your tests etc. What a joke

have a look on this site: https://www.brokerfish.com

 

Malyasian based broker. I've recently found a worldwide policy (excluding the USA) that covers all majot illnesses for 6840 RMB/year. Far cheaper than PingaAn @ 20k!

A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
