Atlas Healthcare and AXA PPP healthcare recently celebrated the 15th anniversary of their relationship. To mark this occasion, apart from the setting up of the new 24/7 GP Assistance and having a great staff team building event, it was important to review the Malta product line to ensure that the Malta AXA PPP healthcare customer continues to benefit from the most updated benefits and conditions that the AXA Group can offer.

A major product review had just been completed and from this month, new policies and renewals of members on standard plans will benefit from major changes including higher overall policy limits and simplified documentation with claims guides. Daycare cash benefits have also been introduced and minor surgery by family doctors has also been made more accessible with limits per episode introduced across all plans. Health at hand, a service providing immediate 24/7 international phone access to health clinics and counsellors, has been included on clinic plan cover where this was previously only available to international and hospital plan members.

AXA PPP healthcare International plan members have a major innovation in their plans which will now allow them unique access to elective cover for treatment in Canada as a standard benefit whereas before policyholders had cover in USA and Canada available only for treatment on a non-elective or emergency basis and limited to €75,000 per year.

The AXA PPP healthcare range of plans continues to offer wider cover to its policyholders including cover for congenital conditions which are covered up to €250,000. Cover has been widened further to cover AIDS within the terms and conditions of a standard health plan, scuba diving cover up to 40m and even war risks unless members are actively participating in such events.

Catherine Calleja, Managing Director of Atlas Healthcare Insurance Agency pointed out that ‘The AXA PPP healthcare Malta plan review ensures that we continue to offer ‘top of the range’ cover in Malta for discerning policyholders who trust the Atlas Group to give the best possible cover with an international network of providers and international service levels.’
