Wednesday, 17th April 2024, Nairobi
Jubilee Health Insurance has today introduced ‘Care and Health’, a premium international health cover specifically designed for expatriates and high net-worth individuals who frequently travel abroad, ensuring they receive top-tier medical care wherever they are.
Administered by Henner Group and reinsured by Allianz, this world-class medical insurance provides the best solutions for medical expenses, hospitalization, 24/7 emergency assistance services, and specialized treatments in over 185 countries, ensuring that customers have peace of mind wherever they may be.
Every year, thousands of Kenyans travel abroad seeking treatment for various ailments. According to data from the Ministry of Health, more than 10,000 Kenyans seek medical treatment outside the country each year. Additionally, it is estimated that Kenyans spend KSHs 15 billion per year on overseas treatment.
This groundbreaking insurance solution stands out with its unique features:
- Extensive Limits: Offering up to USD 4.5 million, this product provides unmatched financial protection against unforeseen medical emergencies and healthcare expenses. It empowers individuals to undergo elective procedures, receive specialized treatments, and access routine healthcare services.
- No Limits on Pre-existing and Chronic Illnesses: Unlike traditional health insurance plans, ‘Care and Health’ offers coverage without limits on pre-existing and chronic illnesses, ensuring that those with these conditions are covered to the full extent, providing peace of mind.
- Online Quote Generation for Intermediaries: Through an intuitive online platform, intermediaries can generate quotations at their convenience. This innovative feature streamlines the insurance process, allowing intermediaries to provide personalized quotes to clients quickly and efficiently.
While speaking during the event, Jubilee Health Insurance CEO Njeri Jomo noted the company’s commitment to empowering its customers to prioritize their well-being and receive the best care, all while focusing on their recovery journey without the burden of medical-related costs.
