Can you send me a quote for UAE maternity insurance?

Thank you for your inquiry.

 

If you would like maternity coverage, I can definitely provide a range of options. It is important to look for maternity coverage before you become pregnant because if you are pregnant without maternity coverage, no insurance will cover you and if they do, they will most likely increase your rates significantly for it.

What would you recommend for someone living for 6 months in the U.S. and 6 months in the Philippines?

Thanks for the enquiry!  When looking at a plan that covers people in the U.S. we must select a worldwide policy so their coverage is continuous.  A travel insurance is not  a good option should they require longer term treatment for a chronic condition, which can be very risky.  An individual plan could cover them for day to day medical issues as well as any sort of treatment that might require longer term treatment, such as cancer or a chronic heart  condition.

I am a U.S. citizen who is considering retiring to the Philippines. I am 75 years old and in excellent health. I am concerned about the cost of health care in Thailand.

The cost for basic outpatient care is minimal in Thailand, what is best to focus on is the emergency/ inpatient care, as these are the types of treatments that can add up to staggering amount if you don’t have private health insurance in place.
