NUTP and Zurich Malaysia Collaborate to Launch NUTP Medicare

– The National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) is thrilled to announce its collaboration with Zurich Malaysia (Zurich), to launch NUTP Medicare, a comprehensive group hospital and surgical takaful plan that covers the expenses of medical treatment for surgical procedures resulting from accidents or illnesses. This collaboration reflects NUTP's ongoing efforts to provide its members with access to exceptional healthcare services through a tailored takaful protection plan.

President of NUTP, Aminuddin bin Awang said, “At NUTP, we are committed to the welfare of our members, and the launch of NUTP Medicare is a testament to that commitment. The collaboration with Zurich is a significant milestone for NUTP as the takaful coverage provides the same benefits as other products in the market but at a more affordable price point. Participating in NUTP Medicare will provide much-needed support to our members during emergencies and challenging times, ensuring they have access to comprehensive and value-added medical services. We strongly urge all NUTP members to take advantage of this opportunity and participate in NUTP Medicare for their well-being as well as their loved ones."

With the introduction of NUTP Medicare, NUTP members can now benefit from expert treatment in a private hospital, ensuring their utmost comfort and care. The key benefits* are as follows:
  • Affordable and fixed contribution rate for members 18 to 60 years old, starting as low as RM70 per month, members can enjoy comprehensive coverage without any deductible or co-takaful requirement.
  • 24-hour worldwide coverage, offering peace of mind no matter where members may be.
  • Access to over 160 renowned hospital panel options, allowing members to choose the facility that best suits their needs.
  • Comprehensive protection for the entire family is as low as RM180 per month, with no limitations on the number of children covered under the age of 23.
      • Chief Executive Officer of Zurich General Takaful Malaysia Berhad, Shamsul Azman said, “In an era of advancing medical technologies and improved treatments, seeking medical assistance can often come at a high cost. We are honoured to collaborate with NUTP in providing access to a comprehensive and affordable medical takaful protection plan for NUTP members. This collaboration allows us to leverage our expertise and resources to ensure that NUTP members receive the highest quality healthcare coverage available. This initiative aligns perfectly with our ‘Care For What Matters’ brand campaign, emphasising the importance of taking care of financial implications that may arise from unexpected situations.”
