Dear MSIG Policyholders,
With the announcement of the Movement Control Order, as directed by the Prime Minister's Office on 16 March 2020, we have made some adjustments to our travel & healthcare insurances.
For MSIG TravelRight Plus Insurance:
With effect from 23 January 2020, please take note that MSIG TravelRight Plus insurance does not cover any claims arising from the outbreak, which is deemed a "known" event.
However, if you purchased the travel insurance before 23 January 2020, coverage will only be extended to the following:
Before the Journey*:
- Coverage of Policy
- If you are infected with COVID-19 and it results in hospitalisation or death before you start your journey, the policy will cover for travel cancellation provided that the insurance was purchased no later than 7 days before your journey begins.
During the Journey*:
- Coverage of Policy
- If you are infected with COVID-19 during a journey where the insurance was purchased before 23 January 2020, the policy will cover for:
- medical expenses
- emergency medical evacuation
- travel curtailment
- repatriation of mortal remains
- Travel insurances purchased after 23 January 2020 are not covered for claims in relation to COVID-19.
