Allianz Partners has launched ‘the first-0f-its-kind’ extra protection policies for EU/EEA employees, called Elevate, the healthcare top-up plan.
Designed and sold through Allianz Partners health brand, Elevate was previously known as the EU Top-up Plan and available only in Germany. It is now available for employees across the European Union/European Economic Area.
Designed to provide extra peace of mind to employees across Europe, the top-up plans supplement the care provided by statutory healthcare offering a better standard of care across multiple treatments including optical benefits; dental treatments; physiotherapy; prescribed drugs and dressing; prescribed medical aid and complementary treatments.
Employers can select the plan that best suits the employees´ needs, while also making budgeting more predictable. There are five budget plans to choose from: €300/€600/€900/€1200/€1500 per employee, per year.
The more digitally led and flexible a policy can be, the better suited it is to an employees’ lifestyle, thus helping to attract and retain the best talent. Elevate answers these needs while also supporting local statutory healthcare within Europe, covering employees’ out-of-pocket expenses.
The aim of the plans is to ensure staff have a seamless experience in a borderless Europe, focusing on ease, timesaving and wellness as a corporate strategy for building a dynamic, international workforce.
The plans also include digital and in-person support, such as:
• 24/7 helpline in 6 languages
• Monthly live webinars delivered by international health experts
• Access to MyHealth Digital Services to submit claims
• Health & Wellbeing Library with health guides, podcasts, videos and recipe booklets
Mariana Ishchuk, global head of product management & innovation (PM&I), Allianz Partners said: “The success of the EU Top-Up Plan in Germany is testament to our commitment to deliver innovative healthcare solutions for our customers.
“We are delighted to introduce Elevate to a wider audience across the EU/EEA region, allowing more brokers, employers and members to benefit from our innovative solution. We are confident we are offering comprehensive plans for our clients, designed to address the needs of an ever-changing workforce who are seeking consistency and efficiency, for the best price.”
