What is Group Health Insurance?
Group Health Insurance (group medical insurance) is a coverage plan provided by employers to a group of employees and often their dependants. This insurance covers a range of medical expenses and can include custom options based on your workforce’s needs.
Typical group medical insurance in Kenya covers:
- Hospitalisation (inpatient)
- Outpatient care (consultations, medication)
- Maternity
- Optical and Dental (optional)
- Preventive and Wellness programs
Whether you’re a startup or a large enterprise, comprehensive group health insurance supports compliance and business resilience.
