Measured tools (16)

• find_plans read-only

  The plan finder. Ranks every eligible VHIS plan on what it covers and what it really costs, and returns three explained picks (lowest cost over the period, best coverage for the money, most comprehensive) with a ranked list behind them. Coverage is read from each plan's Benefit Schedule; cost is the published premium for every year from this age, and the same again with the insurer's own filed rate changes applied. Age is the only thing it needs; pass whatever else the person has actually said.

  Parameters:

  • age (required) — integer — Age last birthday, as the premium schedules state it
  • room — Minimum hospital room class wanted: Ward | Semi-private | Private
  • limit — integer
  • needs — Must-haves they named, any of: full_cover, no_annual_limit, mental_health, cancer, outpatient_general, dental, maternity, chinese_medicine, health_check, emergency_assistance, cash_benefit, second_opinion, home_nursing, deductible_waiver
  • years — integer — Period the cost is totalled over
  • gender — string — M or F, as the schedules rate it
  • smoker — boolean — True only if the person said they smoke; a few plans rate for it
  • currency — string
  • insurers — Restrict to these brands, e.g. ["Bupa","AXA"]
  • priority — string — What matters most to them
  • territory — Where cover is needed: hong_kong | greater_china | asia | worldwide_ex_us | worldwide
  • budget_annual — Most they want to pay in the first year, in the plan currency
  • max_deductible — 0 for no deductible; leave empty to allow deductible plans, which cost less

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• price_plans read-only

  Every matching plan ranked by annual premium alone, with no view on coverage. Use it when someone asks for the cheapest, for a full list, or for one insurer's prices. When what the plan covers matters, use find_plans. Needs a key on the public server; without one it returns key_required and tells the user where to get one.

  Parameters:

  • age (required) — integer — Age last birthday, as the premium schedules state it
  • room — Ward | Semi-private | Private
  • limit — integer
  • gender — string — M or F, as the schedules rate it
  • smoker — boolean — True only if the person said they smoke; a few plans rate for it
  • insurers — Brand names to restrict to
  • plan_type
  • max_deductible — Highest deductible acceptable; 0 for none
  • one_per_product — boolean — Cheapest matching option per product rather than every option

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• plan_coverage read-only

  What one plan actually pays, item by item from its own Benefit Schedule: full cover or the published cap on room and board, hospital charges, surgeon's fee, imaging, cancer treatment and psychiatric care, plus the annual and lifetime limits, room class, territory, extras and a coverage score. Use it for "what does this cover", "is surgery covered in full", "does it include outpatient".

  Parameters:

  • cert (required) — string — VHIS certification number from an earlier result, e.g. F00070 or F00070-06-000-02

• plan_terms read-only

  The plan's terms as filed with the Health Bureau, field by field with the page each came from: guaranteed renewal age, entry ages, pre-existing condition schedule, waiting period, room class and higher-room rule, territory, full cover, limits, deductible basis, coinsurance, outpatient, psychiatric, cancer, extras, cancellation, switching and exclusions beyond the standard list. Use it for "does it cover X", "what is the rule on Y" and terms comparisons; cite the page.

  Parameters:

  • cert (required) — string — VHIS certification number from an earlier result, e.g. F00070 or F00070-06-000-02

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

Use it for "which is better" and "why is one cheaper"; state the trade-off and let the person choose.

  Parameters:

  • question (required) — string — Plain words, e.g. "psychiatric treatment limit", "pre-existing conditions", "treatment in mainland China"
  • cert — Scope to one plan when the person is looking at it
  • brand — Scope to one insurer

  Parameters:

  • brand
  • topic
  • question

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• treatment_cost read-only

  What Hong Kong private hospitals published they actually billed for a procedure, hospital by hospital, with the doctor's fee and the hospital's charge separately, and what a named plan would pay of it. From the government's price transparency platform, not an estimate. Bills differ several-fold between hospitals, so never quote a single figure for Hong Kong without saying which hospital it belongs to.

  Parameters:

  • cert — A certification number, to also work out what that plan pays of each bill
  • procedure — e.g. "hernia repair", "caesarean section", "knee arthroscopy"; omit for the list of what is published

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• search read-only

  Search every certified plan document and return matching records, each with an id, a title, a page link and the clause text. Call fetch with an id for that plan's full record. search_plan_terms is the same search with richer output; this pair exists because some clients look for tools named search and fetch.

  Parameters:

  • query (required) — string — What to look for, in plain words, e.g. "psychiatric treatment limit"
  • limit — integer

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• fetch read-only

  The full record behind a search id: what the plan pays and every term as filed, with the page of each clause.

  Parameters:

  • id (required) — string — An id from search, e.g. F00070-06-000-02

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• create_lead

  Pass the person to a licensed adviser: saves the enquiry, emails them their shortlist, emails the adviser and returns a WhatsApp link and a reference. Only call it once they have given a name and a phone number or email and have said they want to be contacted. Never put a health detail in the note; the adviser asks directly. Needs a key on the public server; without one it returns key_required and tells the user where to get one.

  Parameters:

  • name (required) — string
  • age
  • note — What they asked for. Never any health detail.
  • email
  • phone
  • gender
  • option_id — The plan they want to talk about
  • preferred_contact

  Hints: read-only no · destructive no · idempotent no · open-world yes
