Expatriate Health Insurance with American Express and GoodHealthAmerican Express have partnered with one of the world’s leading providers of expatriate and international health insurance, namely GoodHealth.

The partnership will provide expatriate American Express cardholders with access to a unique range of brand new international health care plans and packages.  For the first time ever expatriate health insurance with American Express and GoodHealth is directly available to all expat Amex cardholders via Shelter Offshore.

GoodHealth have been providing specialist and targeted private health insurance to expatriates for 25 years.  American Express have been around now for over 150 years providing a global network of assistance for their internationally based clients.  They have joined together to create a unique series of health insurance and care packages for American Express cardholder expatriates worldwide and to create one of the most exciting ventures in international health insurance provision ever.

If you are an expatriate and you have an American Express card prepare to get excited!

As an expatriate one of your first and most pressing concerns when you have relocated will be establishing health care cover for you and your family.  No matter where in the world you live - even if you’re an expatriate in the UK where there is a largely free National Health Care System - you will have to afford to pay for at least some of your treatment if treatment should ever be necessary. 

As an expatriate the ongoing affordability of your health care cover will no doubt be on your mind when your policy comes up for annual review, and when you have a family and children the issues relating to healthcare costs and affordability increase substantially. 

But the bottom line is that as an expatriate you must ensure your basic insurances are in place to provide you with: -
a) the peace of mind to enjoy your brand new day to day life and
b) the cover necessary to at least cover essential and emergency care.

With health insurance costs worldwide on the decidedly expensive side and with inflation in the medical industry quite simply high, the first criteria on most people’s minds when it comes to sourcing health insurance cover is cost and ongoing affordability.  The second most important criteria will be the level of cover provided and the security and status of the insurer. 

On both these points GoodHealth is a winner! 

GoodHealth have been in the business of health insurance provision for 25 years, they have worldwide offices, they manage premiums totaling in excess of USD 1.2 billion annually, they are powerful, provide a comprehensive and affordable service and are renowned for their ongoing customer service.

They offer an instant quotation service for you to compare what you’re paying now with their premiums, they give every detail about all their specialist plans away on the internet so that you can truly make sure you’re comparing like for like, and now that they have formed a partnership with American Express and are offering further benefits and features to Amex cardholders which further heightens the appeal and value of the products and plans they offer.

If you are an expatriate, if you are an American Express cardholder and if you want to find out about more about the partnership between Amex and GoodHealth or you want to learn about the premiums, services and applicability of an available health care plan for your needs or you want an immediate online quotation simply follow this link and you will be redirected to the brand new partnership site for GoodHealth and American Express.
