Moving your family abroad can be intimidating, but learning about medical options such as family health insurance early on can help you settle successfully.
The lucrative prospect of higher salaries abroad can tempt some working professionals to move their families overseas.
Get access to a great standard of care for you and your family with Cigna Healthcare. You can comfortably work anywhere in the world and still get the best healthcare through our comprehensive private family health insurance.

It’s a comprehensive insurance cover that gives you and your family access to private healthcare services when living, studying or working abroad.
Our international family health insurance is designed to suit the requirements of a family abroad, whether that be day-to-day coverage or emergency care. You’ll have the choice of treatment facility, the doctor you want to see, and the emergency and routine healthcare options you’re looking for.
Getting family health insurance is the first step to securing you and your family’s health and wellbeing abroad.
We understand that every family is different. That’s why we offer flexible, family-friendly benefits such as:
Get detailed cover for maternity inpatient and outpatient care for you and your baby for the first 90 days.
Routine health checks and evaluations for children, including assessments for Autism and ADHD.
Cover for infertility investigation and treatment (Platinum plan).
Cover for treatment resulting from pandemic, epidemic and outbreaks of infectious diseases, including COVID-19.
The main difference between family health insurance and travel insurance is that the former gives you long-term medical coverage for you and your family abroad. The latter gives you short-term coverage - ideal for holidays or vacations.
It can be a legal requirement in some countries for foreigners and expats to have international health insurance for their family.
In countries where it’s not a legal requirement, having family health insurance gives you peace of mind that your loved ones will receive the best treatment available.
