Do I need international medical insurance for professionals?

Many countries state that having international health insurance is a condition of qualifying for a working visa. Other countries may offer public healthcare to people who work in the country, but it might only be accessible after a certain period of time, and sometimes the healthcare provision is of a lower quality than you may be used to, with long wait times.

International health insurance for professionals means you’ll always be able to access quality healthcare in a timely manner, avoiding long waitlists. International medical insurance can also help you access medical professionals who speak your language, making the experience more straightforward for you.
