Premium payments for active HIP and FutureCare policies can continue to be made via online banking. For online banking transactions, please ensure that you enter your policy number on the comment line. Premium payments can also be made over the phone with a debit/credit card. For anyone who is unable to make premium payment via online banking or with a debit or credit card, HID will accept cash or cheque payments in the office. Please do not place cash payments in the drop box at the Health Insurance Department.
New enrolments for HIP and FutureCare are being accepted. This will require the completion of a paper enrolment form at the Health Insurance Department at Sofia House, 48 Church Street. Premium payments can be made via debit/credit card, cash or cheque. HID cannot accept online transfers for new enrolments to HIP or FutureCare. A confirmation of coverage letter will be issued for all new enrolments and should be presented to health service providers as necessary.
Requests for personal home care, including assessments, will be facilitated as expeditiously as possible.
