Why to buy International Health Insurance?

Whatever situation you have and wherever you are in the world, when it comes to your health, international health insurance gives you the greatest protection and peace of mind you could hope for. It can feel like a bit of a leap if you’ve never taken out private health insurance before, so it’s good to know what the benefits are before you decide. You can do an independent research, get the advice from fellow expats or leave to experts to give you all the answers.
You can benefit from private health insurance anywhere in the world. International health insurance is designed for those who:

  • are retiring overseas
  • are working abroad
  • have already settled in another country
  • are globally mobile and frequently travel from country to country
  • are looking for the most extensive private health cover

Expats are a fact of life in this modern, globalized economy and the world is getting smaller; it is not just large multinationals who send employees overseas, but also medium to small sized companies, along with contractors and freelancers. Travel insurance is not enough if you’re planning to build a new life abroad, or if you divide your time between homes in different countries. You need protection that will be flexible enough to allow for all the ups and downs of resettling in another place. For extended visits, travel insurance will serve you well. When you’re going somewhere for much longer, international health insurance is designed to suit you. It offers bespoke cover and protection for as long as you want into the future.


Moving abroad is often a daunting prospect, and there are so many things that can be a wrench to leave behind. Anxiety about leaving a country with reliable health services is about more than familiarity – you need to feel confident that you’ll be well looked after wherever you go and whatever happens.

Our team of global benefit experts understand what matters most when living or working overseas – not only in terms of day-to-day healthcare and support, but also the necessary consideration of regulations in each country around the world relating to private health insurance, pensions and the provision of other international insurance products.
