Their situation
Offshore and deployed teams
Hire in Kuala Lumpur, deploy offshore, treat in Singapore. If your team moves around more than most, the cover needs to as well, including evacuation terms that are worth reading before anyone needs them.
This is ordinary international health cover, configured for a workforce that does not sit in one country. There is no separate offshore policy to buy.
Three things to consider
- Onboarding anywhere
- Whether a hire who sits outside Singapore can go on cover the same way as one who sits here. Where the scheme allows it, that is how we set it up.
- Treatment location
- Where people actually end up seeking care, which is not always where they are based.
- Evacuation terms
- What they cover and from where. From a remote worksite, getting someone to a hospital is the first problem and paying for it is the second.
What we do
- Set the scheme up so a hire outside Singapore is not a special case every time.
- Check the evacuation terms against where your people are actually deployed.
- Handle the movement, since a workforce like this generates more changes than most.
