Group Medical and Public Liability Insurance Schemes for Non-local Students

PolyU has already prepared a basic insurance coverage (Group Personal Accident Insurance) for students joining PolyU activities during their stay in Hong Kong. For details, please refer to the latest insurance policies on the Finance Office (FO) website: 

https://www.polyu.edu.hk/fo/internal/students/insurance-for-students/.

In addition, the University has acquired Group Travel Insurance for students participating in activities outside Hong Kong which are recognized by PolyU.

Please note that PolyU insurance policies do not cover personal hospital expenses, public liability or travel outside Hong Kong. Hence, you may consider purchasing Group Medical Insurance Scheme and/or Public Liability Insurance Scheme for further protection. Brief highlights are as below:

  • The Group Medical Insurance Scheme covers hospitalization medical expenses due to accidental bodily injuries. However, Out-patient consultations will NOT be covered by the Group Medical Insurance Scheme.
  • The Public Liability Insurance Scheme covers legal liability for accidental third party property damage (tangible property) and/or accidental third-party bodily injury in connection with the Insured’s business.  

The premium for the Group Medical and Public Liability insurances covering 1 September 2023 - 31 August 2024 (both dates inclusive) are HK$274.3 and HK$175.2, respectively. 

If you are interested in the insurance policy(ies), please fill out the online registration form on or before 20 August 2023, Sunday for 1st batch of application OR 13 September 2023, Wednesday for 2nd batch of application. (Late application will NOT be considered).

After registration, an Electronic Debit Note will be issued to you. You should check your debit note number by logging in the "Student Account Enquiry" system. Payment should be settled on or before the deadline. If you fail to settle the payment IN FULL by the stipulated deadline, your registration will be cancelled automatically.

The details of registration, coverage period, premium and payment are listed below for your reference.
