Your present policy may well cover you internationally, just as mine does if I travel outside the Philippines. I'm going to try to input a link to a post about this topic, although I'm not sure urls will "take" on this site: <br /><br /><Secular Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03355591007995127097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818900974104562945.post-39476395059367766012014-04-14T23:19:49.613+08:002014-04-14T23:19:49.613+08:00Thank you.

Not being able to use it (much like Medicare) could be the deciding factor if I am actually going to go to the Philippines or not.Migukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10446590939711116289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818900974104562945.post-49285668013190543152014-04-11T10:45:08.013+08:002014-04-11T10:45:08.013+08:00I doubt it.

My wife and I began our health care policy before the older of us turned 65 and have not been canceled even though the older one is now 72. The only thing is that health coverage for us old folks is expensive (of course.)<br /><br />AsSecular Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03355591007995127097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818900974104562945.post-27773055219545510882014-04-09T14:42:55.225+08:002014-04-09T14:42:55.225+08:00I am interested in insuring my mother-in-law, who ...I am interested in insuring my mother-in-law, who is filipino and lives in Pampanga. <br />She is over 65 and is only partially covered, about 20%, under my wife's PhilHealth plan. <br />Could you give me an example of a local private medical insurance provider for Filipinos over 65?<br />I have not yet been successful in my web searches.<br /><br />In addition, do you know of a local Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17329439517110219929noreply@blogger.com
