New expat product from Cigna
Cigna Global Health Benefits is now offering a new product to expatriate employees of multinationals with offices in Africa. Called Cigna Africa, the product has been specifically tailored to multinationals’ ‘globally mobile, key local and third-country national staff in Africa’. It includes health benefits, coverage for dental and vision needs, and evacuation and health management provision, as well as giving access to Cigna’s local experience and facilities and wider global medical network, along with 24/7 customer service.
“Africa is an emerging economy, with significant growth … over the last decade,” said Bart Jordens, Cigna’s general manager of international organisations and Africa. “This trend makes it an attractive expansion target for us. With our already existing infrastructure and experience in Africa, we are in a good position to give regional expats and key nationals a premium service.”
