Group Health

There’s much more to protecting your business than just insuring your assets. We know that your employees are the lifeblood of your organization, and we want to help you protect them from the financial stress that come with illnesses and diseases.

Whether you are an SME or a large corporation, Edge is dedicated to working with businesses of all sizes and across any industry to offer tailor-made Group Health Insurance plans with the flexibility to choose the level of coverage you want—from a cost-efficient Essential Benefit Plan (EBP), to a comprehensive first-class programme.

Tip.  Work with Edge to explore all your options.  Attracting and retaining top talent necessary to keep your business moving forward is directly related to the benefits package you offer, not just the salary for the position. Health insurance is extremely important for recruiting and retention. In fact, studies are starting to show that employees are placing a higher priority on the quality of the health insurance coverage offered vs. the salary. The happier the employees, the more productive they get, which will then lead to better business performance and increased revenue.

As your company grows and regulations change, you need to build the right benefits strategy for your business. Our dedicated team will be there every step of the way to help you determine what coverage is right for your needs, and work one-on-one with you to ensure your Group Health Insurance plan is aligned, effective and affordable for years to come.

We work hard to deliver outstanding service, quality products and customized solutions. Contact us today for free quotes, from a panel of insurance providers, and to help you build the right insurance plan for your employees to ensure they have access to the best medical care.

There are currently two Emirates which mandate that employers provide health insurance coverage; Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Dubai: The Health Insurance Law of Dubai No 11 of 2013 requires that all Residents must have a level of health insurance that meets or exceeds minimum benefits stipulated by Dubai Health Authority (DHA).

Abu Dhabi: Any one residing or working in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and his/her visa is issued from the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The Health Authority Abu Dhabi (HAAD), is the regulator of the healthcare sector in Abu Dhabi.

Coinsurance is a percentage of the costs of consultations, treatment, tests, drugs and medicines that you have to pay. A deductible is a fixed amount that you pay regardless of the overall cost of treatment. Both are used as a means of keeping down the costs of medical insurance.

As it is a matter of good employment practice to do so in order to assist with recruitment and retention of employees, it is encouraged for employers to provide cover for dependents’ medical expenses although this is not compulsory.
