Total digital solutions company, Globacom, has launched the Glo Health Insurance package, an affordable micro-health insurance plan, offered in collaboration with AXA Mansard Health Insurance to provide access to limited health care for its subscribers.

The Glo Health Insurance utilizes the advantages of Glo mobile network to provide simple, easy and affordable micro health insurance cover to all, irrespective of their location within the country. It can be accessed by all Glo subscribers via SMS, USSD, and through the web.

“Subscribers will be connected through a tele-consultation with a medical practitioner and have access to free drugs and treatment at thousands of pharmacies across the country”, Globacom explained.

Subscribers can choose from an array of daily, weekly and monthly subscriptions at N50/daily, N300/weekly and N750 monthly respectively. Each plan comes with the option for one-time (one-off) or auto-renewal.

The service is designed for all age brackets and cuts across all classes of Nigerians who seek affordable healthcare for themselves, family and friends. The insurance packages confer a great advantage on subscribers as they do not have to spend money to enjoy basic health consultations and medication. They also get to enjoy free medication up to a stated amount.

Apart from the insurance, Glo subscribers also stand a chance to win up to One Million Naira every month as the health insurance lottery will automatically enter every subscriber into a weekly and monthly raffle draw. One Million Naira will be won by any subscriber whose number is picked in the monthly draw. The objective is to reward subscribers irrespective of whether or not they access the health insurance benefits, thereby providing a pay-back benefit to subscribers, Globacom explained.

According to the company, the beauty of the package is that Glo subscribers do not have to visit any office to enjoy any of the packages. Glo Health Insurance can be accessed by all Glo subscribers via SMS, USSD, and through Glo website. Subscribers can easily dial *3013# from their mobile phones to select any health insurance pack of choice.

She furthered that AXA is very delighted to have found the same level of commitment in Globacom and other partners on this project.

This is because this partnership will accelerate the noble agenda of universal health coverage. With this product, healthcare can now be accessible to everyone, everywhere in the country,” she explained.
