What's the difference between your plans and other international health insurance?
An International health insurance plan for expats and those moving abroad is much broader cover than standard holiday or business travel insurance. It is designed to provide access to local health care services, emergency cover, maternity care, treatment of ongoing conditions and repatriation if needed. Travel insurance provides some of this cover to a lesser degree, but for a single trip or shorter periods of time. Travel insurance also protects against non-medical risks such as lost luggage and trip cancellation.
What is an Aetna International insurance plan?
An international health insurance plan offer a range of covers suitable for anyone working and living outside of their home country for a year or more. Amongst others, they include:
- Medical and emergency evacuations
- Medical care expenses
- Maternity coverage
- Access to doctors and prescription drugs
Am I covered on your plans for pre-existing medical conditions?
It is possible to cover some pre-existing conditions on some policies. To find a plan that covers your pre-existing conditions, please speak to one of our advisors.
I'm leaving on short notice. How long does it take to put cover in place?
Cover can be provided in just a few minutes. You can either get a quote online or call an advisor to discuss your individual requirements. You'll just need some details about where and when you're moving abroad and about any pre-existing medical conditions.
Can I continue my treatments in other countries?
