Hospital & Surgical Insurance
Our goal is to ensure you have complete protection when facing hospital stays or
surgery — giving you and your family the financial confidence to focus on recovery, not medical bills.
About Hospital & Surgical Insurance
Essential Cover for Life’s Unexpected
Even with Hong Kong’s exceptional healthcare, hospital costs can be shockingly high. A few nights in a private hospital can easily exceed HKD$100,000, and surgical procedures often add even more. For expats and international families, these expenses can become overwhelming — especially without the right insurance in place.
That’s why Hospital & Surgical Insurance is fundamental. It covers the core medical costs related to hospitalisation, operations, and inpatient treatments — ensuring that you never have to compromise on care or comfort. At Expat Insurance Hong Kong, we make the process clear and simple: our team compares the market, explains every clause, and helps you secure coverage that’s tailored to your health, lifestyle, and peace of mind.
Why Choose Hospital & Surgical Insurance?
When health emergencies arise, quick access to top-tier care matters most. A dedicated Hospital & Surgical Insurance plan provides full financial protection against high inpatient and surgical expenses — from a simple appendectomy to complex operations — giving you total peace of mind.
What Does Hospital & Surgical Insurance Include?
- Hospital room and board (including private or semi-private rooms)
- Surgical fees, anaesthetist, and specialist charges
- Pre- and post-hospitalisation consultations and diagnostics
- Emergency care and intensive care coverage and recovery support
- Cashless billing and direct settlement for approved hospitals
- Worldwide or regional cover based on your preference
Hospital & Surgical Insurance acts as the foundation of any solid medical plan — protecting you from major costs that come with accidents or illness. Whether you’re in Hong Kong or abroad, you’ll have priority access to trusted hospitals and quality healthcare whenever you need it most.
With Expat Insurance, you’ll receive guidance to select a plan that fits your budget, medical needs, and long-term goals, ensuring you’re always one step ahead.
We’re not here just to sell a policy — we’re here to ensure you’re properly covered for every hospital stay, every operation, and every emergency — with full transparency and support from start to finish.

Possible Pitfalls We Help You Avoid
Cancer treatment gaps: Some plans only cover inpatient cancer care. We make sure your plan includes outpatient chemotherapy and follow-up treatments.
Room restrictions: Many policies limit room types. We help you get private room coverage with minimal co-pay.
Claim rejections: We review exclusions upfront to prevent unexpected denials later.
Coverage limits: We recommend policies with realistic annual and lifetime caps to avoid financial shortfalls.
These are just a few of the pitfalls that can catch people off guard. With over 15 years of experience, we’ve helped thousands of expats avoid them — delivering clarity, security, and protection that truly works when it counts.

Real Stories That Show the Difference
An airline executive broke his ankle and faced a HKD 270,000 hospital bill. His company scheme only covered half. A broker-arranged plan filled the gap, saving him HKD 120,000.
A young expat couple secured comprehensive cover before starting a family. When faced with complications, their policy saved them from six-figure maternity costs.
An American professional developed cancer just months after taking out coverage. Because he had comprehensive, worldwide cover, he was able to choose treatment both in the US and Hong Kong.
These aren’t rare exceptions — they’re everyday realities in Hong Kong, where a single hospital stay, accident, or unexpected illness can quickly become a financial crisis. The difference between being protected and being exposed often comes down to one thing: having the right policy in place.
