    There is an option to tailor GBG Health insurance plans to provide cover in public (government run) hospitals only. Alternatively, you can still include access to international medical facilities with English speaking doctors in China too. Most importantly, always make sure what level of access to providers you have.

    1. Once you receive medical treatment please ensure that hospital front desk gives you a chopped/stamped medical fapiao (can be e-fapiao), medical reports including diagnosis and list of prescribed medications
    2. If available you can submit your claim via the insurance company’s website or app from your smartphone. For instance, they support both iOS and Android, as well as WeChat official account.
    3. Firstly, download a claims application form form the ‘Download Useful Documents’ section of this page and complete the form as best you can.
    4. Secondly, scan and send all documentation including the claim application form to chinaservice@gbg.com 
    5. GBG insurance company will then confirm that all documentation is in order and will ask you to submit the original claim documents to the insurance company if needed. Generally speaking, if it is a non-China claim scanned copies may suffice.
    6. Lastly, insurance company will email you the claim application result and will reimburse eligible claim amounts to you bank account.
