Dear Customer,                                                        

Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!

We would like to inform you thatt The insurance coverage of employees and their families shall be determined by the employee's salary, job position and other matters. The cost of medical services provided to the resident is determined by coverage and insurance program. In Abu Dhabi, employers shall provide health insurance for their employees and their families to include (one wife and three children under the age of 18). While in Dubai, the government requires employers to provide health insurance to their employees only without their families, and on the other hand, sponsors shall provide insurance coverage required for their sponsored workers. For other emirates, employees who do not have health insurance from employers may buy health insurance for themselves and their families. Several health insurance companies are available in the UAE, some of which provide Islamic insurance products such as (Takaful), so you may find available insurance programs and choose from them according to your needs and budget.

The UAE Insurance Authoritywebsite provides a list of registered insurance companies and related occupations in the UAE.

The health card provides its holder with therapeutic benefits at a low cost of half the value in the public hospitals and public clinics of the State.
