Quality HealthCare Medical Services
Expats living in Singapore
Singapore hospitals offer quality care, but are highly expensive. Options are available for expat individuals and families to save up to 8 percent on their premium by having their hospital treatment within a semi-private room, rather than a private room.
Expats living in Indonesia
Global Health members have access to Global Assistance and Healthcare, a 24 hour medical emergency phone line and medical centre service. Global Assistance and Healthcare is the country's leading emergency and repatriation service, staffed by medical professionals with knowledge of the local health issues and health care system.
Global Assistance and Healthcare offers:
24 hour Alarm Centre – staffed by medically trained consultants, members can call the service for emergency assistance, health advice, first aid, locate a health professional, and organise emergency evacuation and repatriation.
Medical Centre – based in Jakarta and staffed by qualified and experienced health care professionals, the service provides medical examination and other primary health care services.
Expats living in Africa & India
Medical costs vary world-wide and are generally lower in the African and Indian region. As such, William Russell have created Area Four, a premium saving option available to members on Global Health Platinum and Global Health Elite plans.
Area Four will discount your premium by limiting your geographic area of coverage. Members with an Area Four benefit will be entitled to treatment within the African or Indian sub-continent region. Emergency treatment will be covered when visiting areas outside area of this region, up to US$100,000 excluding the USA, Canada, the Carribbean, and London.
