    Cases of autistic people refused insurance / World Internet Conference 2024

    On Monday’s Backchat, we’re looking into the difficulties members of the neurodiverse community face when purchasing insurance plans.

    In a LinkedIn post which went viral, the Chairman of Manulife Financial Asia Damien Green said that he was "sad and frustrated" at the way insurance companies — including his employer — treat customers with autism, citing his own son as an example.
    Over 40 people commented on Green’s post, praising him for speaking out about the issue. Some said that their loved ones were denied insurance coverage for being on the spectrum despite having no physical health issues, in both Hong Kong and other parts of the world.
    And while insurance companies might be ready to make their services more accessible to physically healthy neurodiverse customers, questions remain as to whether reinsurers are willing to lower the risk threshold for these groups.
    Have you or a loved one been denied insurance?
    After 9:45, we're looking into the highlights of the World Internet Conference, which will be held in Wuzhen from Tuesday till Friday.
