Allianz Worldwide Care
November 5, 2012
Allianz Worldwide Care has developed a range of international health insurance products designed specifically for Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO’s). The SANO NGO healthcare plans will be sold exclusively by SANO Concept International and its French partner SANO Care. This new product range has a solution for every NGO, even if they employ different categories of staff (e.g. expats, third country nationals, local staff) or whether their staff are on long term or short term assignments. Whatever their employee categories, nationalities, location or duration of employment, NGOs will have the convenience and simplicity of dealing with a single health insurer. The SANO NGO plans are available on a Medical History Disregarded (MHD) basis and will cover employees as well as their dependants.There are five plans to choose from and these can include cover for in-patient treatment, out-patient treatment, dental treatment and either evacuation or repatriation. There is also a choice of geographical region of cover, providing NGO’s with a truly flexible solution from which they can select the cover most suitable for them. Two of the plans can also be used as a ‘top-up’ to the CFE (French social security for expatriates), providing French expats with the reassurance of knowing that their social security cover remains uninterrupted, with no waiting period on their return home.
Hendrik Boelens, Regional General Manager at Allianz Worldwide Care commented: “We believe that the SANO NGO product range will be welcomed by Non-Governmental Organisations, most of whom would otherwise have to use a number of providers and go through multiple layers of administration. This new range, distributed by SANO Concept International and SANO Care, will offer NGO’s a ‘one-stop-shop’ for all their health insurance needs. Plus, plans are backed up by Allianz Worldwide Care’s consistently high level of client service and support, thus helping NGO’s to attract and retain key staff”.
Sébastien Menand, Managing Director of Sano Concept International added “The SANO NGO product range is one of the first developed exclusively for the NGO sector. We recognise the fact that the profile of NGO employees is changing, with an increasing number of local employees and third country nationals (TCNs) being hired. This is why these plans have been designed for NGOs who may employ local employees and/or third country nationals, as well those who employee expats, which would be the more traditional approach. The ability to be able to provide healthcare cover for all categories of employees is essential to meeting the needs of today’s NGOs.”
