Are you a current or soon-to-be expat?

If so, you should be aware that healthcare around the world can be expensive. The best way to ensure that you can afford treatment for yourself or your family abroad is to get an international health insurance plan.

What is international health insurance?

International health insurance is healthcare protection for expats living abroad. Most plans involve a quarterly or annual fixed payment to insure a policy holder for a number of health conditions and treatments. Different plans cover different health benefits, so it's important to identify the right plan for you before you take out your policy.

Members can claim, pre-authorise treatment and contact our Member Care team all through our app, yourHealth.
All our policies include our Expat Assistance Program (EAP), Security and Natural Disaster (SAND) protection and Life Cover benefits. Our EAP helps expats deal with the emotional issues linked to working abroad, while SAND provides emergency response and assistance to our members across the globe.
We work with A-rated partners, like MGEN, to ensure excellent financial security, global coverage 24/7 and long-term price sustainability.
