UnitedHealthcare Global

UnitedHealthcare Global brings the backing of UnitedHealth Group, one of the world's largest healthcare companies, to international coverage for expatriates and mobile employees. Their plans include 24/7 multilingual support, a broad network of hospitals and clinics, and coordination with other coverage you might have. The parent company's scale means they can invest in technology and customer service that smaller insurers can't match.

Smart option if you want the stability of a major insurer and you're likely to have some back-and-forth with customer service (the 24/7 multilingual support makes a real difference). If your employer sometimes subsidizes health insurance, UnitedHealthcare Global is frequently on corporate benefit plans, so your coverage might already be negotiated.
