Health insurance

Description

Health insurance plays a vital role in every person’s life by offering many benefits when adopting the right insurance policy. Many people have international insurance which may be used overseas. Before visiting Armenia, it is necessary to have travel insurance, which will cover the main medical expenses during your stay in Armenia. In case of emergency, you can be assisted in any medical centers in Armenia and then be remunerated by your insurance company. Expatriates living in Yerevan will need to have medical insurance, as it is mandatory for all residents. It is also recommended for expats to add or find Medical Evacuation Coverage (MEDEVAC), because whilst most hospitals provide adequate care, it may be necessary to take you out of the country for treatment and the cost of this can be high. The healthcare system in Yerevan provides national care hospitals, regional hospitals, and primary healthcare providers. In the city, there are numerous hospitals and medical centers, including the internationally recognized ones. For more details about the law on insurance in Armenia please visit here.
