UK gets two new health insurance products

Global healthcare provider MEDIGO has recently announced that it would launch two health insurance products, namely, GLOBALCOVER and GLOBALCARE, for its UK market. GLOBALCOVER is a treatment-based insurance for major illness that offers cancer treatment, heart surgery, neurosurgery and live-organ transplants. It provides treatment-based cover rather than a lump-sum payout. GLOBALCARE is a health services subscription for second medical opinions and medical concierge. It is designed to meet the needs of patients who self-pay for treatment and provides personal support and logistics for medical treatment booking in 35 countries. “We are thrilled to be able to open up our services to a new market and hope to help more people gain peace of mind that they’ll get the right medical treatment when they need it,” said Ugur Samut, Medigo CEO. “These products are great for employers who are looking for smart ways to make their health benefits relevant,” said Bruce Eaton, Medigo Managing Director, UK.
