VHIS · High-end
AIA Voluntary Health Insurance Privilege Ultra Scheme and Bupa Hero VHIS Plan - Core are both High-end VHIS plans; they differ in ward class, benefit limits, geographical coverage and premium.
AIA Voluntary Health Insurance Privilege Ultra Scheme suits you better if you value a higher annual benefit limit (HK$11,775,000) and a stated lifetime benefit cap (HK$58,875,000). Bupa Hero VHIS Plan - Core suits you better if you value a lower entry premium (about HK$10,532/yr at age 40, non-smoker).
Neither plan is categorically better — your choice should rest on your own budget, where you expect to seek treatment and your family needs, ideally after a financial needs analysis.
