ARC Europe selects NRMA Nepal as medical assistance partner
The agreement strengthens local medical coordination capabilities for international travellers requiring healthcare support in Nepal’s remote and high-altitude regions
ARC Europe has selected NRMA Nepal as its medical assistance partner in Nepal, expanding its network of local providers supporting international travellers requiring medical care.
Under the agreement, NRMA Nepal will provide medical assistance, case coordination, access to local healthcare providers, and operational support for ARC Europe’s member organisations and customers.
The partnership strengthens ARC Europe’s medical assistance capabilities in South Asia, where Nepal’s mountainous terrain and remote destinations can complicate access to healthcare and the coordination of medical transport.
Pierre Pietrzak, International Medical Network Manager at ARC Europe, said NRMA Nepal had completed the company’s provider selection process.
“Nepal is an important destination that requires experienced and dependable local support,” he commented. “We are delighted to welcome NRMA Nepal as our selected partner and look forward to a long-term and successful collaboration.”
Sneha Prasai, Director of Operations and Network at NRMA Nepal, told ITIJ that the agreement would allow the company to support ARC Europe and its members through its local knowledge, provider network, and operational capabilities.
ARC Europe coordinates medical, travel, roadside, and mobility assistance services for insurers, vehicle manufacturers, and other partners. Its international medical network supports travellers requiring healthcare and assistance services overseas.
The partnership was formally announced at ITIC Global 2026 in Istanbul, Türkiye.
