Expatriate Medical Insurance & Health Insurance Guide
Healthcare
Lebanon's health sector is at par with European and US hospitals. Private clinics and medical centers are available throughout the country and equipped with the latest facilities and technology.
Most Lebanese are privately insured and those registered with the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) have partial health coverage. Policies providing corporate group coverage are widely used by companies registered at the NSSF to supplement the benefits provided by the government's healthcare system. International private medical insurance is available for non-Lebanese living in Lebanon. Cost for healthcare varies between hospitals and doctors.
A number of pharmacies are available across the country. Many drugs are available over the counter without prescription and some pharmacists prescribe required medicine for minor ailments.

Basic Individual Program
The Basic Individual Program is a health insurance program that covers all medical expenses agreed on and incurred during your stay in the hospital.
Who can subscribe & how?
The age brackets for new adherents are 14 days till 65 years.
There is, on the other hand, no age limitation for the persons already insured with us.
To subscribe to this plan, all you need to do is fill in a medical questionnaire; and depending on your age (>60 years), some medical exams may be needed.
What does it cover?
The first year of insurance, all accidental health problems and non-preexisting cases are covered.
Upon the renewal of your contract, if no major disease had altered your health condition, all the preexisting cases will be covered, like heart diseases, cancer, renal problems, etc.
In more than twenty five years of existence, Bankers Assurance has grown to become a major player in the Insurance industry in Lebanon.
