Expatriate private health cover is an ever-growing part of the increasingly popular private health insurance industry, as more and more people move away from NHS waiting lists and towards the specialist care provided by private health cover. Expatriates are flocking in their droves towards health cover policies that give them protection in their new life abroad. Health cover for expatriates is a fairly specialised industry and it’s a good idea to discuss your private health insurance requirements with experts to establish what would and wouldn’t be covered in your expatriate health cover policy. Whether expatriates have moved abroad for work, to study or for retirement, thousands each year seek out private health cover packages to ensure they receive the best possible treatment should they suffer illness or injury. Health cover from private health insurance firms comes in all shapes and sizes, so it helps to discuss your own specific needs with your chosen health cover provider.

Health cover – reasons for private health cover

Expatriates know the importance of having a comprehensive health cover plan in place should they fall ill or become injured whilst  living in another country. As such, the number of expatriates seeking out private health cover policies generally increases each year as the motivations for having private health insurance continue to mount. One of the primary reasons that private health cover is soaring amongst expatriates is that their countries of residence may be unwilling or unable to offer free medical treatment if  required. To safeguard their health, most expatriates set up their private health cover  prior to moving abroad. Many hospitals around the world will not admit people unless a promise of bill payment is made, and this is why the take-up of private health cover amongst expatriates is skyrocketing. It is much better to have the peace of mind that comes from having private health insurance than worry about falling ill or suffering an injury whilst living overseas.

Health cover –finding out what’s covered

Typically, private  health cover for expatriates is  designed to be used for short term, curable injuries and illnesses and most insurers won’t provide cover for long term or pre-existing health complaints. To establish exactly what will or won’t  be covered by a private health cover policy it always pays to speak to professionals in the field.
