In Dubai and Abu Dhabi <\/span>health insurance is mandatory for all residents, and it is a legal requirement to have this. This enables residents to obtain health cover at approved clinics and facilities across the Emirates, that are within their approved network list.<\/span><\/p>\n However, how does this process actually work if you need pre approval? And why is pre approval important?<\/span><\/p>\n \n <\/p>\n Many people are not aware of the significance of pre-approval when it comes to their health insurance. Pre-approval, also known as prior authorisation or pre-certification, is the process by which your health insurance provider reviews your medical treatment plan before you undergo any procedures or treatments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The purpose of pre-approval is to ensure that the treatment or procedure is medically necessary and that it is covered under your policy. This process is particularly crucial for expensive or complex treatments, such as surgeries or advanced diagnostic tests. Pre-approval is required for certain benefits, mostly for expensive treatments and in-patient treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n Depending on your plan, these treatments can include treatments for in-patient and out-patient surgery, day care treatment, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and CT scans, pregnancy and childbirth complications, cancer diagnosis, dialysis of the kidney patient, rehabilitation therapy & treatment, medical repatriation or evacuation, and many more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The pre-approval process supports in assessing each case, organises, and makes the hospital bill payments and admission process easier. It also ensures that you are covered before commencing a procedure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nWhy is Insurance Pre-Approval Important?<\/b><\/h2>\n
