Solutions for one-person companies and small teams.
Startups and SMEs often face the same two challenges:
Alea works with some insurance providers to offer solutions for early-stage startups with as few as 1-2 employees. Although a startup may not be eligible for discounts or special offers on group plans, a group plan allows you to add or remove employees throughout the policy year, offering greater flexibility than multiple individual plans.

There is no “best” insurer and there is no “one-size-fits-all” health insurance plan. Every product has its own strengths & weaknesses and because we know them all by heart (it's our specialty!), we know – for instance – which plans are more flexible on pre-existing conditions or which may be discontinued. Each proposal and recommendation is tailored to suit your own needs and situation.
Choice is incredibly important, as your needs and personal situation may change over time. Maternity, child cover, planning for retirement, the onset of a chronic illness – we can't always plan for exactly how life will unfold. Additionally, some health insurance products may simply become too expensive over time.
Our team is always here to support you, through each season of life, sourcing the right solution and helping you change your benefits and even your insurer at renewal.
The Code of Conduct For Licensed Insurance Brokers specifically mentions that our fiduciary duties are owed to clients. While there are insurance providers we work with more than others, no one partner represents more than 20% of our total revenues. We partner with 25+ insurance providers, allowing us to provide choice and remain completely independent.
We don’t work for insurance providers, we work for you.
No! We don't charge you for our services. If you take out an insurance policy with us (or transfer your current policy to get Alea's outstanding advice and service), we will receive a commission from the insurer. We offer free advice and quotes to find you the best group medical insurance, at the best price. The price you'll get with us is the same or even cheaper than if you buy your insurance directly from an insurer. Don't hesitate, talk to us!
