What's pre-approval?
Who's eligible?
Certainty of claim outcome
With the pre-approval of your medical bill, you can have the assurance of your claim outcome and focus better on your journey to recovery. It’s a recommended procedure if you are seeking non-emergency specialist care under Aviva’s panel specialist.
Cashless and hassle-free
Focus on your recovery with cashless admission (subject to the approved amount) and paperless claims at any of our participating hospitals and clinics. The hospital/clinic will submit your claim directly to Aviva.
Higher coverage and benefits
Getting pre-approval also comes with increased benefits such as higher annual claim limit and extended coverage for pre- and post-hospitalisation treatment benefit.
