Question:

Is there a waiting period for certain benefits like maternity or surgery?

Answer

Yes, some health insurance plans in the UAE include a waiting period for specific benefits such as maternity care or planned surgeries.

The main points to keep in mind are:

  • Maternity Coverage: Most plans require a few months before maternity care is included.
  • Elective Surgeries: Non-emergency or planned surgeries may also have a waiting period.
  • Plan Differences: Waiting periods can vary, so it’s important to check your policy for exact details.
