When it comes to moving abroad for work, there’s a lot to think about. You need to find a place to live, settle your children into a new school, and set up a new bank account, while also adapting to a new culture and way of working.
Get health insurance that can keep up with you with a global expat plan from Cigna
You’ll also inevitably need to think about healthcare and what would happen should you or your family fall ill. Standards of healthcare can vary widely around the world, and while Germany’s healthcare system is generally recognised as very good, it may differ from what you’re used to in your home country.
Whether you’re coming to Germany for a long time, or just a few months, everybody needs health insurance - it’s a legal requirement. There are plenty of different health insurance companies in Germany, but not many of them have options specifically tailored for expats.
If you’re someone who relocates often, and wants a flexible policy that can keep up with you as you move around the world, you might think about getting global health insurance with a company like Cigna. Regardless of where, or how many times, you relocate, global health insurance offers you peace of mind. Most plans can be adjusted to suit any budget or requirement.
