Medical & Health

Fast access to quality healthcare, without the worry of how the bill will be paid.

Quality private healthcare can be expensive, and medical emergencies rarely arrive at a convenient time. Medical insurance gives you and your family access to private hospitals, specialists and diagnostics, with the costs covered within the limits of your plan.

We arrange individual and family plans as well as group medical schemes for employers who want to look after their teams. Group cover has become one of the most valued employee benefits in Zambia, helping businesses attract and retain talent while keeping staff healthy and productive.

Medical plans differ widely in their hospital networks, annual limits, waiting periods, chronic-condition cover and outpatient benefits. We compare these details across providers, explain them clearly, and help you choose a plan whose benefits match the care you are actually likely to need.
