27. Helping you to protect your
clients against infectious
diseases
How do you know that when one of your
clients requires an emergency blood
transfusion that the blood being sourced has
been thoroughly screened ?
With ALC Health, your clients are automatically
protected by the Blood Care Foundation ensuring
sufficient blood supplies, screened against
transmissible infections, including HIV and other
infectious agents are sourced and delivered no matter
where in the world it may be needed.
It’s not just me saying that the future could lie with the international side of our industry . . . . Here’s what COVER magazine has to say . . .
Pick up the paper and you’ll see yet another article about moving abroad . . . . Turn on the television and there will be a channel following the exploits of a someone moving overseasThey nearly all need medical insurance, so what’s stopping you ?
Just look a these examples provided by AXA PPP International and how there can be a vast difference in the cost of medical treatment from one country to another.A simple hernia operation in the UK might cost around £2,000 but if you choose to be treated in Hong Kong the cost goes through the roof to over £10,000. Logic doesn’t come into it, so your clients need cover and you’re the ones to arrange it . . .
