Bupa Arabia has announced launching a new International Health Plan (IHP) for members to have access anywhere, anytime to a hospital or health care professionals, in Saudi Arabia or even when they are traveling abroad. 
The IHP is Bupa Arabia’s first international single card plan for members to cater to their global health care needs.
The IHP provides access to over 1.2 million health care providers in 190 countries when the Bupa insurance card is presented. It empowers its members to access elective or emergency treatments abroad whenever they need it.
The IHP is targeted to achieve many of the benefits to the beneficiaries wherever they go for business or leisure, with immediate coverage for preventative tests, maternity cases, dental and optical, cancer treatment, chronic diseases, and more with coverage reaching up to tens of millions of dollars.
“With the rise in the number of Saudis and expatriates traveling abroad for business and pleasure, along with the increase in foreign investors and business representatives coming into the Saudi business field, the necessity of expanding our coverage internationally has become extremely apparent.” said Bupa Arabia’s CEO Tal Nazer.
“People’s lifestyles are constantly changing, especially in Saudi Arabia, and we must be fast on our feet to meet the demands for new health coverage plans that these changes are generating. Whether a person is a frequent traveler for business or pleasure outside the Kingdom, a familiar and reliable international health insurance plan is indispensable, so making Bupa Arabia your insurance partner is a smart decision,” Nazer added.
This “innovative product” is a result of the fruitful partnership between Bupa Arabia and Bupa Global, which possesses more than 70 years of experience in international health care across more than 190 countries around the globe.
