Plan 1 All employees and their eligible dependants
The plan covers recognized costs of services or treatment which are recommended by a medical
practitioner and are medically necessary and up to the reasonable and customary for the care and
treatment of an injury or sickness, as determined by AIA, up to limits shown in the list of benefits.
For the purposes of this plan, medically necessary and reasonable and customary is defined as:
“Medically Necessary” shall mean a medical treatment, services and/or supply provided by a
Registered Medical Practitioner and/or Specialist covered under this Policy which are:
(a) consistent with the diagnosis and customary medical treatment, service and/or supply for
Sickness or Injury;
(b) in accordance with standards of good medical practice; consistent with the current standard of
professional medical care and with proven medical benefits;
(c) not for the convenience of the insured, Registered Medical Practitioner or the Specialist, and
unable to be reasonably rendered out of Hospital (if admitted for confinement); and
(d) not of an experimental, investigational or research nature, preventing or screening nature.
“Reasonable and Customary” shall mean in relation to a fee, a charge or an expense, means any fee
or expense which
(a) is charged for medical treatment, medical supplies or medical services that are Medically
Necessary and in accordance with standards of good medical practice for the care of an injured
or ill person under the care, supervision or order of a Registered Medical Practitioner
(b) does not exceed the usual level of fees or charges for similar treatment, supplies or medical
services in Singapore, regardless of where the expense is incurred; and
(c) does not include fees or charges that would not have been made if no insurance existed, as
reasonably determined by AIA. In determining whether any particular Hospital/medical charge is
a Reasonable and Customary charge, AIA may refer to any relevant publication or information
made available regarding treatment in Singapore, such as fee benchmarks or fee guidelines for
treatment by the Registered Medical Practitioner or other healthcare professional, or any such
equivalent publication issued by or under the authority of the Ministry of Health (Singapore). AIA
is not obliged to consider the fee benchmarks, guidelines or other applicable references relevant
to treatment or hospitalisation occurring outside Singapore. AIA reserves the right to decline or
adjust any and all benefits payable in relation to any Hospital or medical fees or charges which in
the opinion of the AIA’s medical director is not a Reasonable and Customary charge
The Reasonable & Customary clause shall not apply for overseas emergency treatment.
“Emergency” shall mean, non-routine services or treatment rendered for a serious medical condition
resulting from Injury or Illness (as the case may be) which arises suddenly (including a sudden acute
exacerbation of a chronic medical condition) and that could reasonably be expected, in the opinion
of a Registered Medical Practitioner, to result in death of the Insured Person or serious impairment
of his bodily functions unless treatment is received within 24 hours of onset.

Practitioner or Specialist including but not limited to:
