Expatriate Group has expanded its suite of international health insurance plans by launching short term cover.

The British insurer now allows clients to buy iPMI policies for periods starting from 3 months; with a defined end date.

Short term policies are available for up to 11 months in all, the company said.

The new offering is aimed at supporting customers on a short term secondment overseas and students – who may prefer buying overseas iPMI policy in smaller chunks.

Commenting on the launch, Expatriate Group director Lee Gerry said:  “This is an initiative by the Expatriate Group Customer Care team, who have highlighted that this is something that’s regularly requested by new members.

“Travel polices might not work in all cases, as the aim, in the event of a claim, is to get the customer back to their home country for treatment. Whereas the short term iPMI policy allows customers receive local medical treatment without any break in their obligations overseas,” Gerry added.
