Are you covered under "BUPA Corporate" from your company?

Do you have any personal information about "BUPA for individuals" scheme?

I just moved here with my husband and son. He is a faculty member, and all of us are eligible to be treated for common illness at the university polyclinic.

However, in the faculty guidebook, it also mentioned that foreign faculty member might considered to get personal medical insurance. Therefore, we would like to explore what are the options available.

Most companies provide full insurance coverage for their employees & their families. The *full* here means

- Coverage till 250K SAR (a norm) in a wide spectrum of hospitals & med conditions.

- The coverage includes Consultation fee, Vaccinations, Dental & Eyecare, Circumcision & Ear piercing for newly born, Maternity (till 15K SAR) , Acute Mental/Psychiatric/Psychological Conditions聽 etc etc.

Of cource polyclinic can't provide all of this and having a decent health policy is a good idea.

You may google the following top companies and get to know the details of individual insurance packages offered.

1- Bupa Arabia
2- Tawuniya
3- medgulf
4- Trade Union
5- SAICO
