Expat Health Insurance
Country-Specific Considerations
When figuring out the best health insurance plan for you and your family, it is important to do your research about the country you are moving to. Check out our Country & City Guides section for country-specific information on health insurance and medical care in many international locations around the globe. These guides contain useful information about whether expats in different countries usually choose public or private policies. Will you be eligible to receive government healthcare subsidies in your host country? Are there any exceptions?
Will you be covered under a new health insurance plan as soon as your plane touches down in your new hometown or will you need to wait until you obtain your residence permit or a special health card? It is very important to make sure there are no gaps in your coverage, because if you should have an accident or fall ill, you could find yourself paying dearly for it.
You should also check if your home country has a reciprocal healthcare agreement with your host country. It is important to understand what exactly this agreement entitles you to, however, as you may only be covered in the event of a medical emergency. These agreements are often intended for tourists and short-term visitors, rather than for expats on an extended international assignment.
