How International Health Insurance benefits your business

By helping support your employees back to health and work quickly, International Health Insurance also ensures your business runs smoothly. It helps employees perform at their best and is an attractive benefit to help you attract top talent and keep it.
Did you know? 94% of expats are unprepared for the mental health issues associated with relocating. Offering international health insurance to your people working overseas can help them manage their wellbeing, motivation and positivity.

  • Treatment as an in-patient, day-patient or out­patient
  • Emergency advice 24/7.
