How does Health Care Abroad work?
If you’ve been diagnosed with a serious illness that is covered by the policy call us.
We will then identify an international medical expert who will confirm your diagnosis and recommend the best treatment available.
We will find the best international hospital and organise everything that is needed to make sure you can receive that treatment.
You can choose a person that you would like to accompany you and if the patient is a child both parents can go.
We will take care of your flights and accommodation and there’s no need to worry about money either. You won’t have to pay any money upfront because the medical, travel and accommodation costs are all taken care of.
You’ll receive money to cover any expenses while you’re in hospital and the policy will also cover the cost of the medication that you’l need on your return.
