Allianz Partners to provide Paris 2024 assistance services
Allianz Partners’ medical assistance and repatriation services will be available to the 155,000 athletes, volunteers, and members of the Olympic and Paralympic family
The Paris 2024 Organising Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games has appointed Allianz Partners to offer medical assistance and repatriation services during the event, which takes place in and around the French capital from 26 July – 11 August.
Allianz Partners’ medical assistance teams will work closely with local public services and the Paris 2024 Organising Committee to secure the best possible patient care. Any medical assistance requests will initially be managed by the Paris 2024 medical unit, after which Allianz Partners’ teams will step in to support patients throughout their hospital journey. They will monitor patients’ hospitalisation, cover medical expenses, and arrange transport home or organise repatriation, if necessary, once patients are in a stable condition.
“Allianz Partners is very proud to have been selected to provide medical assistance and repatriation cover for the Olympic family, including athletes, officials, and volunteers,” said Francois-Xavier Duchateau, Group Chief Medical Officer at Allianz Partners. “As a company committed to promoting sport and its values, we know the importance of providing the Olympic participants with medical cover to match their sporting ambitions, helping protect their health while providing peace of mind. Our entire team of assistance agents, nurses, and doctors are ready to deliver the best possible assistance to this exceptional group.”
Fifteen million people are expected to visit Paris during the course of the Games.
