Few Moldovans know about the benefits of the optional health insurance policy, so the number of those who procure it is very small. According to a report, in the first quarter of this year, the share was just two per cent of total health insurance.
The optional health policy enables the beneficiaries to reach out to the doctor whenever they want. The services included, as well as the hospitals where they would like to be treated, can be chosen by the beneficiary.
Depending on this, the cost of the policy is determined.
People say they are ready to buy another policy, but be sure they will not pay extra services or treatments:
"If anyone would say that one hundred percent can benefit from qualitative medical services, then yes."
Optional health policies can be purchased from insurance companies.
The most expensive one has reached 30,000 lei because it included treatment at a hospital outside the country.
The cost of compulsory medical insurance is 4,056 lei.
Some categories of people benefit from discounts.
