GlobalCare plans

One family of plans. UAE-only or the whole world.

Every plan is built on the same promise: clear benefits, no surprises, and a team in Dubai who picks up the phone. Choose your region, then the size of your group.

What's covered

Clarity you can read in a minute, not a booklet.

Tap a benefit to see what it means in plain language. This is how we want every member to feel before they ever need to make a claim.

Why a mutual

Together we are stronger. It is not a slogan, it is the business model.

HanseMerkur has no shareholders. Every dirham goes to cover, service and reserves. And because policies up to 70 lives are pooled, one member's serious illness does not become everyone's price rise.

01

Service

Access to the highest calibre of medical professionals and providers, and a service team that treats every call as a chance to exceed expectations.

02

Clarity & transparency

Benefits and terms you can actually understand, so you know exactly what is covered and use everything you have paid for.

03

Reduced risk, more certainty

A well-managed, community-rated portfolio means consistently low renewal increases. No punitive pricing after a hard year.

04

Value for money

No shareholders to satisfy. The quality of cover and the service you get, for the money, are unparalleled in the region.
