In order to give its customers access to limited medical treatment at the most affordable rates, Globacom, Nigeria’s digital solutions provider, has introduced the Glo Health Insurance package, a micro-health insurance plan offered in partnership with AXA Mansard Health Insurance.
Every Glo subscriber, irrespective of location in the country, is qualified to have access to this simple, convenient, and inexpensive health insurance coverage with the Glo Health Insurance, which makes use of the benefits of the Glo mobile network. Subscribers can have access to it via the web, USSD, and SMS.
The company explained that “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.”
A variety of daily, weekly, and monthly subscription options are available to subscribers for N50 per day, N300 per week, and N750 per month, respectively. The choice of auto-renewal or one-time (one-off) renewal is included with every plan.
The program is projected for Nigerians of all ages and socio-economic backgrounds who are looking for accessible healthcare for friends, family, and themselves. Subscribers benefit greatly from the insurance packages because they do not have to pay for basic medical consultations or prescription drugs. Additionally, they are eligible for free medication up to a certain quantity.
In addition to the insurance, Glo subscribers can win up to N1 million naira each month because every subscriber will be automatically entered into a weekly and monthly raffle draw by the health insurance lottery. Any subscriber whose number is selected in the monthly draw will win a million naira. According to Globacom, the goal is to reward customers regardless of whether they use the health insurance services, giving them a pay-back advantage.
The company also added that one of the package’s greatest features is that Glo users can take advantage of all of its offerings without ever having to visit a Glo office. All Glo subscribers have access to Glo Health Insurance through the Glo website, USSD, and SMS services. Subscribers can easily dial *3013# from their mobile phones to select any health insurance pack of their choice.
AXA Mansard Chief Marketing Officer, Adebola Surakat noted that the offering reflected the company’s dedication to guaranteeing that all Nigerians have access to reasonably priced, high-quality healthcare. She added that AXA is thrilled to work with Globacom and other project partners on the project.
