Global health insurance is gaining popularity with rising frequency of international travel among corporates and tourists. Apart from travel, many high-networth individuals now prefer to get treated abroad in case of critical illness or in case of life-threatening diseases. Even employers who send their employees abroad are interested in global health covers. To address the evolving needs of their customers, many Indian health insurance providers have launched policies having a global coverage. Along with the regular cover, these policies additionally cover you against any medical emergency when you are travelling abroad. Some policies even offer a cover for planned international hospitalization.
