Premium International Health Insurance for Individuals, Families & Companies

We recognise that everyone is unique, which is why our plans are customisable to meet your specific needs and budget.

Whichever plan you select, the standard core benefits, such as inpatient, day patient, and outpatient treatments, are always fixed and uncapped, providing unparalleled coverage for the most medically significant and potentially costly treatments.

While some benefits may not be essential for everyone, they are desirable for others. These benefits remain available, along with enhancements to certain core benefits, offered as Package Options upon request, allowing for the enhancement and customisation of our plans to suit your requirements.

You can choose one or more Packages, and within the Dental, Optical, and Assistance Packages, there are additional options for specific monetary limits.

Flexibility & Choice

From the locations in the world where you are covered, to the monetary limits and scope of benefits, as well as the quality of network providers, the choice is yours. We have plans to suit your needs and budget, all of which comply with local health authority laws and regulations across the Middle East.

“Specialists in world-class international health cover, offering a range of products for all levels and categories of workers, across any country and for any budget.”

Our Individual and Family Plans provide the widest array of options and variations in the form of package enhancements and add-ons, making them highly customisable and ideal for meeting the specific needs of today’s expatriates.

The Group Plans come in various forms depending on the number of individuals covered, but they are all designed for companies with multinational workforces. If required, they can also include dependants, with different levels of cover (categories) available based on pay grade and position, all at a price that suits you.

Simplicity, Clarity & Transparency

We strive to be market leaders in this field, providing benefits, terms, and procedures that are straightforward and easy to understand. This ensures you have the confidence of knowing exactly what is covered and the peace of mind that you can utilise and access precisely what you have paid for.

World-Class Treatment & Care

Access to the Best Providers (Doctors, Hospitals & Clinics) in the World – Truly international coverage means you can choose to be treated wherever you wish. Whether it’s a back operation using pioneering techniques in London, knee surgery at a leading German sports science clinic, open-heart surgery performed by world-renowned Indian surgeons, or world-class diabetes care in Dubai, the choice is yours.

Dedicated Service Centre Team delivering 24/7 Support

We are excited to announce that HanseMerkur-designed and reinsured health insurance policies will now be serviced by our own highly trained in-house team operating within NextCare.

To enhance our insured members’ experience, we have established a dedicated HanseMerkur Team to work alongside our TPA partner, NextCare.

Members will benefit from access to NextCare’s extensive networks, and we will continue to utilise its market-leading technology and systems, but with our own proficient team of doctors, claims processors, and customer service agents who have been meticulously trained to exclusively support our policies and members.

Whichever plan and options you select, one thing remains constant: our commitment and drive to deliver quality, excellence, and the highest levels of service and customer satisfaction.

24/7 Support: Our helpline is available 24/7, 365 days a year, with a dedicated multilingual team of medical experts and professionals always on hand to advise and guide members.

We prioritise having more customer service and support staff rather than salespeople and large advertising budgets.

“You can expect the highest service levels from a German insurer—from the timely delivery of cards and the swift processing of claims to having proper and responsive support in the Middle East.”

“Reliable, with the best service levels, and dedicated.”

In fact, we believe we have the highest ratio of support, customer service, and technical staff per dollar of premium.

EAP / Well-Being: Counselling in over 200 languages is available via our website or app, covering Family, Life, Health, Money, and Work issues, in person or remotely.

Medical History Disregarded (MHD): The application process is simplified, allowing forms to be completed by one authorised representative from the company rather than requiring each insured individual to fill out their own forms.

Reduced Risk & Increased Certainty: Policies covering fewer than 71 lives are “community-rated,” meaning that if a member develops or suffers from any serious or costly medical condition, it will not result in punitive price increases at renewal.

No Need to Pre-authorise: Everything is handled when visiting network providers. For visits to providers outside the network, there is no need to waste time seeking pre-authorisation, as claims will be payable if medically necessary and covered.

Unbeatable Value for Money: As HanseMerkur is a mutual organisation not driven by the need to generate profits for shareholders, the quality and level of cover and service provided for the price are unparalleled.

Covered Means Covered: You will receive exactly what you have paid for, with no hidden clauses, no prohibitive sub-limits, and no unfair exclusions.
