CCW Global Deploys Online Purchasing for Cigna Global Health Insurance Products

CCW Global Limited, a leading Hong Kong based international insurance broker, is pleased to announce in collaboration with Cigna that instant purchasing for expatriate medical insurance products is now available via CCW’s website.

CCW Global has deployed an online-purchasing platform for Cigna’s international health insurance products which enables expatriates worldwide to buy and confirm instant health insurance coverage 24 hours a day, 365 days a year – no matter where the customer may be located. This ensures a level of flexibility and convenience, which was previously unavailable from CCW and brings the broker closer towards full implementation of simplified health insurance solutions globally.

Cigna Global Health Options is a leading international private medical insurance offering, which is differentiated from alternative options in regards to the solutions a company can offer in regards to pre-existing medical conditions, which are normally excluded by most major global insurers. Cigna and CCW Global can offer clients the option to cover some common pre-existing conditions following a review of a medical questionnaire by Cigna’s underwriters.

Speaking on the announcement, Sam Cooper, Managing Director at CCW, stated “we are thrilled to be able to offer instant purchasing functionality for high-quality medical insurance solutions for Cigna products. As an internationally recognized brand with superior products, Cigna’s forward looking outlook matches the vison held by CCW Global and gives us the ability to provide convenient health insurance solutions to customers worldwide, with instant cover.”

Mr. Cooper went on to say “the option for customers to cover their pre-existing conditions via a premium loading after underwriting is also extremely exciting; especially with the range of conditions which Cigna is able to cover via this channel. This is a truly 21st Century Solution for the international medical insurance market and we are looking forward to developing our capabilities in this area even further.”

Phil Austin, Head of Global Individual Private Medical Insurance at Cigna said: “CCW Global offers expatriate and globally mobile clients an impartial take on international health insurance. We are delighted that CCW Global has chosen to work with Cigna to offer clients a high-quality, comprehensive cover solution, and value the impartial input that the company can provide to clients to ensure they can choose the cover which is most suitable for their needs”.

Expatriates looking to take advantage of the development from CCW Global and Cigna can visit https://www.ccw-global.com to buy their health insurance coverage online from today.
