As health comes into sharper focus with age, sufficient medical protection is paramount to our well-being. Facing the realities of aging and accelerating medical costs, your existing insurance plan may be insufficient to cover your health-related expenses. Well Link Life's Well Care Silver Medical Plan ('the plan') is designed for customers from age 55 to 75 years. The plan helps to relieve the financial burden arising from medical expenses, allowing you to focus on your treatment.
