GREAT SupremeHealth P Plus
[Claims Process] with the help of great eastern's very own e-connect portal, it was extremely convenient for me to book an appointment with a specialist for an endoscopy. I was suffering from suspected chronic gastritis at that point in time and even with a referral from a GP, i had to wait nearly 4 months just to get an appointment with a doctor at a government hospital. Thankfully, with this IP plan, i did not have to wait for long and managed to get my day surgery done and the claims process was extremely fast also due to my agent being very responsive.0

My agent has been very helpful and transparent with the application process, policy changes and any supplemental benefits (e.g. free dengue and Covid insurance). Personally I haven't made any claims. My dad who has the same insurance had to make claims for hospitalization and it was a breeze, thank goodness. Good experience with GE so far.1

I got to know my financial advisor through a friend. After hearing from the advisor and doing my own research, I got my entire family covered with this ISP at the start of 2020. My advisor is knowledgeable and professional. Paperwork was a breeze (every single thing was done on an iPad) and we got ourselves covered real quick.0

Decent plan with 100% coverage with the addition of a rider. Newer plans might not have the 100% coverage but instead close to 90 over percent but they pay a lower premium1
What are your thoughts?Hi, with effect from this year March, there's no more 100% coverage for GE even for policies purchased before 2018.

[Claims Process] Easy [Customer Service] Awesome [Agent Responsiveness] Immediate At the end of the day, to me every client has different needs and wants. The relationship between agent and client lays the foundation of the loyalty to the insuring company. You should pay what you feel is value for money with coverage, price and agent-client relationship as a means to compare.0

GREAT SupremeHealth P Plus
It is very challenging to get pre authorisation approved while I was in an emergency condition. Phoned in to call center, the online officer Chris’ response is seen as as insult to the customer. He used phrase “ enjoy our money” making nasty comments. Which is very unprofessional.1
