  2. Dates of birth
  3. Where are you going to be living abroad the most during the next year
  4. Citizenship of the people to be covered. Note that expat health plans are for expatriates only and generally, local nationals can’t be covered
  5. An idea of the coverage that you want. For example, do you want in-patient hospital-only coverage or do you also want out-patient care as well.

Getting a quote online will only take a few minutes and you can choose from a wide variety of plan options and coverage levels. Note that the deductibles that you choose for hospital or outpatient care will vary and have a big impact on the premiums that you pay. The lower the deductible, the higher the premium. Also, as you would expect, the country of residence abroad will also impact the premium you pay along with your age. For example, the UK and Hong Kong are surprisingly expensive places to obtain medical treatment, so the insurers will charge a higher premium if you will be living there. +
