Li Jinsong said in his speech that China Pacific Insurance will always resonate with the national strategy: first, from the perspective of the "big country", embed the insurance function into the overall openness to ensure the sense of security of foreigners and improve the soft power of China's business environment; second, based on the dimension of global competition, give full play to all brands The third is to focus on the breadth of mutual learning among civilizations, copy and promote the plans polished in the CIIE scenes to more cities, scenes and countries, and use insurance as the language to tell the world a responsible and trustworthy Chinese financial brand.
First appearance at CIIE: "Adaptation" guarantee for diverse scenarios in China
This plan is based on China Pacific Life Insurance’s previous experience in serving the China International Fair for Trade in Services in Beijing, based on the inbound insurance experience of mature international markets, and the actual iterative upgrade of China’s medical security system. It presents three characteristics:
Full coverage of scenarios - suitable for various scenarios of coming to China such as CIIE participation, business inspections, short-term residence, academic exchanges, etc. It can be selected on demand and accompanied by insurance when traveling. A set of plans can meet the protection needs of foreigners with different lengths of stay and different purposes of coming to China;
Comprehensive medical connection - insurance liability is extended to accidental medical treatment and emergency medical treatment of acute diseases. Both internal and external social insurance and self-paid items can be covered. Medical treatment is connected to second-level and above hospitals, including special needs departments and international departments, so that foreigners can seek medical treatment according to their own habits;
The entire service process—insurance, case reporting, medical treatment, and claims settlement—is integrated with multi-lingual services in English, French, Italian, etc., as well as a pre-compensation mechanism, an escort mechanism, and a green channel, realizing the transformation from "post-event compensation" to "full-process companionship."
Foreign-related insurance protection: from “product supply” to “service integration”
Guests at the event jointly pressed the start-up device, marking the official release of the "Global Services Shared Future" China Pacific Life Insurance Comprehensive Insurance Plan for Inbound Foreigners. Subsequently, the first policy handover was carried out to promote the plan from R&D and design to practical application in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and other places.
