Freedom Healthnet Ltd - Freedom Elite

The Freedom Healthnet Elite health insurance policy is slightly different in that is does provide cover in ways that other health insurance policies do not and this is what makes it unique.

Pre-existing conditions
Normally medical insurance will not cover you for a pre-existing condition. You have to be free of symptoms of a past condition for two years from the date you take up your health cover.

Chronic conditions
Chronic conditions are those that are long term and need managing. For example asthma or arthritis. However sometimes policies can provide cover for unusual ‘flare ups’ that need to be controlled for you to carry on leading a normal life again even if your condition is chronic. Additionally if you present with a new acute condition that ends up being a chronic condition you are normally covered for your initial investigations.

With Freedom Elite comprehensive medical insurance however you are covered for chronic conditions under their Executive Option.
