    Up till now for all the numerous healthcare schemes that have begun at district and provincial levels, the general image is one of failing health pointers and facilities through the country. A 2008 World Health Organization report found that decentralization has ran to the erosion of a once incorporated health system, extremely discouragement the worth of disease surveillance and public health programs. Diseases like polio and leprosy, once under control, are resurfacing and the districts are not capable to attend to these or other complicated diseases like avian influenza. AXIS Capital is a group of global insurer and reinsurer, providing clients and distribution partners with a broad range of specialized risk transfer products and services, i.e. health insurance that serves a host of industries and diverse coverage needs through our operating subsidiaries and branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States is in one of the Indonesians who are given false promises. There are many complaints. Health experts are doubtful of local programs that are presented by district officials with slight knowledge or experience in the health sector. The occurrence that many plots are intended chiefly to entice votes frequently means that they do not match the community's complex health requirements. And some regions are stressed to handle the costs. In East Java, where the government once agitated for regional administrations' right to implement local programs, healthcare services are overwhelmed and underfunded. In 2010, the program was seriously in debt, with a budget distribution of just Rp50 billion (a little over $US 5 million) and costs count Rp112 billion. This type of blow-out is not unusual. Frequently it occurs for the reason that the poor health infrastructure may not be able to deal with the unexpected spike in demand that comes once services are proposed for free. Sometimes the problem com

    University of Florida researchers have discovered a link between Medicare and patient access to surgical treatment for subarachnoid hemorrhage, a kind of stroke that affects as many as 30,000 Americans each year - frequently causing death or long-term impairment and disability. AXIS Capital, a group of companies with branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States, a global insurer and reinsurer, providing clients and distribution partners with a broad range of specialized risk transfer products and services, has in full support with this study. (The company also services SE Asian countries such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more.) According to findings published in the journal PLOS ONE, for patients who have suffered this type of stroke, surgical intervention can spell the difference between recovery or long-term disability and death, yet patients on Medicare are less likely than those with private insurance to be referred for surgical treatment. This may represent a conscious or unconscious bias against Medicare patients, who are typically older and have preexisting disabilities or chronic illnesses, said Azra Bihorac, M.D., senior author of the study and an associate professor of anesthesiology, medicine and surgery at the UF College of Medicine. "Not every hospital has skilled neurosurgeons who specialize in subarachnoid hemorrhage," Bihorac said. "If these hospitals don't have the necessary expertise, then they may actually overestimate the risk of a bad prognosis. They may assume that the patient won't do well anyway, so they won't proceed with surgery." The researchers review and analyzed data from the National Inpatient Sample hospital discharge database for the study. The data consist of information on more than 21,000 adult patients released from 2003 to 2008 with a diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage. About 62 percent of the participants were fem

    Indonesia's social insurance reform is the critical goal being universal health coverage for all by the year 2019. It has come into form with a single-payer umbrella program in 2014. Jamkesmas is the Government-financed health insurance program for the poor and near-poor. It has been combined and unified with other social insurance programs. Educating from Jamkesmas may start a better groundwork and application of universal health coverage for Indonesia by 2019. Axis Capital, a global insurer and reinsurer, providing clients and distribution partners with a broad range of specialized risk transfer products and services, a group of companies with branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States is at one with the universal healthcare for Indonesia. What successes can Jamkesmas claim? * About 47 percent of poor and near-poor households were covered under the program. * Outpatient and inpatient utilization rates increased among program cardholders. * Levels of catastrophic payments declined. * Participation of private providers increased. * More than 300 complementary local Jamkesmas-inspired programs were initiated across the country. Yet considerable challenges remain, including the following: * Nearly 60 percent of the populations remain without any coverage, including millions of Indonesians working in the informal sector. * Out-of pocket spending remains high even among those with coverage. * Lack of equitable access to quality health services in rural, remote areas. * Evidence of considerable mistargeting and leakages to non-poor families. * Low levels of awareness of benefits. * Low utilization of health services. * Regional inconsistencies in the availability of the basic benefits package, and poor accountability and feedback mechanisms.

    Local governments initially started carrying health insurance back in 2003 when Megawati Soekarnoputri’s government presented the Health Service Insurance for Poor Families program, or JPK-Gakin. The notion was for district managements to apply their personal community health insurance schemes in line with local requirements. Nevertheless, limited programs ever actually got off the ground before Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s new government presented a bill that laid the foundation for a nation-wide program and made JPK-Gakin redundant, Law no. 40/2004 on a National Social Security System (SJSN). Simultaneously, Yudhoyono’s government announced a program to run free, however basic, healthcare to the poor - Askeskin (health insurance for the poor), which was substituted in 2008 by Jamkesmas (community health insurance). Certain regional administrations put up a round. In 2005, East Java’s government led a test at the Constitutional Court demanding that SJSN gave the central government a monopoly on social service provision and broke the constitution and Law no. 32/2004 on Regional Governance. The court approved that SJSN did not stop local governments from emerging their own social security programs, as well as for healthcare. Ever since, the quantity of local health insurance programs has increased year on year. One of the groundbreaking systems was Jaminan Kesehatan Jembrana (JKJ) presented in 2003 by Gede Winasa, the head of Jembrana district in Bali. According to this scheme, all members of JKJ, may they be poor or non-poor get free pri

    AXIS Capital is a group of global insurer and reinsurer, providing clients and distribution partners with a broad range of specialized risk transfer products and services, i.e. health insurance. We serve a host of industries and diverse coverage needs through our operating subsidiaries and branch offices in Bermuda, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Singapore and the United States. The company also service SE Asian countries such as Jakarta Indonesia, KL Malaysia and many more. Nowadays it is common for an individual to be covered by two, or even three, health insurance policies. One reason for this is the increase in the price of health-care services in the past decade. Ages ago health insurance cover was considered fairly sufficient for an entire family. Nowadays, it will hardly be sufficient to pay for a five-day stay in a hospital and hearing all about the complaints. Furthermore, medical insurance cover from employers is insufficient. In both conditions, one has to buy another policy. But while a larger insurance cover is a good thing, multiple health insurance policies can lead to confusion when making a claim. To avoid misinterpretations ask these questions, like should a person claim only from one insurer or does he need to inform his insurer about the additional covers? Maybe ask, will the hospital permit two cashless claims for the same illness or will he get the no-claim bonus if the second policy is not invoked? It's all rather unclear for the policyholder, who may possibly be under strain due to the illness. The first thing to know is that it pays to apprise all insurers every time there is a hospitalization. This does not mean that one can distinctly claim the expenses from each of them. "You cannot profit from a medical insurance plan," says Joydeep Roy, chief executive of L&T General Insurance Company. Review, since you may want to know why the person would claim from the second policy. After all, isn't his money c

Know why you need it Despite the fact most people may require life insurance at some point in their life; it is a warning not to buy a policy just for the reason that you heard it was a good idea. Even though you don't have any of these needs instantly, you still may want to think through buying a small "starter" policy, if you forestall you will have them in the future. It is because the younger you are, the less costly life insurance will be.

    You may still have the chance to renew your existing health insurance plan or buy a new plan with the open enrollment which ran from November 15, 2014 until February 15, 2015. Axis Capital Holding Group Ltd, a group of insurance companies with branches in Europe, America, Singapore and Jakarta, Indonesia with their main office located at Bermuda has collected some tips for you to review and consider. Old-timer For those who already have their healthcare insurance or Health Management Organization (HMO) but are considering whether to renew it or not, you may consider which company has the best coverage. You may ask your potential insurer the following questions: 1. Will your drug prescription be covered? 2. Will I have to pay each time I see the doctor or go to the hospital for consultation? 3. What will my monthly premium be for 2015? If you have any questions about what changes your plan may make to your coverage in 2015, contact your insurer directly. Once you have taken the time to review any changes to your insurance plan, if you decide you want to keep the same plan, and your household income has not changed, you don't have to do anything. Your plan will be automatically renewed. However, you may want to spend some time looking at plan choices to see if there is a better plan to meet the needs of you and your family. If you qualified for reduced premiums last year, we recommend you log into www.healthcare.gov to update and double-check your income information, as that will ensure you receive the correct tax credit amounts. Newbie In browsing for the best insurance plan, you should also get an assessment which health insurance suited you the most. Think about how often you will be using your insurance coverage, how many times you get a check-up, whether you go see a certain specialist, your drug intake, whether you need specific therapy or which hospital or clinic you often go to. Here are the three factors that may

    Jakarta, Indonesia - Choosing the right insurance coverage isn't easy. If you are under-insured, you could be left with unpaid claims. Sometimes, it doesn't make sense to insure the contents of your home for much less than they are worth, you could be paying for more coverage types than you need. The key is in knowing what's covered and what's not. Account for any recent remodels and look to see if your current coverage keeps pace with inflation.Axis Capital, a group of insurers and reinsurers with the main location in Bermuda and with international branch in UK, US, Singapore and Australia has listed some steps for you to know if you are under or over insured. What you need is coverage that's just right. Here's how to get it, and it shouldn't take more than 4 or 5 hours of your time spent reviewing your homeowner's insurance policy, talking to your agent, and doing a little research. Step 1 Pull out your policy before the annual renewal date. Check for coverage limits, exclusions and restrictions. Always remember that all homeowners insurance isn't created equal. That's why it pays to review your coverage every year to ensure your policy meets your evolving needs. Begin by understanding the types of coverage available. Step 2 Estimate the value of your home's contents. Unless you do a complete inventory of your household furnishings and personal possessions, the things you own could be worth a lot more than you think. Replacement cost coverage is more expensive but usually insures your personal property for what it costs to buy new. Step 3 If you have recently remodeled your house, you should increase your coverage. It is a general rule of thumb to increase coverage once you have completely remodeled project that cost more than at least 5% of
