How do we select these insurers?
We have closely worked with our 25+ insurance partners for many years and we know their products inside out. As an independent insurance broker, we choose to work with insurers with an excellent track record and sell only products that we believe in, tried and tested. The above recommendations are made by our board of licensed insurance advisors based on criteria including the costs, coverage, customer experience, claim process and additional features of each insurer. In short, we are not paid to make these recommendations.
The bottom line
Let’s be frank, there is no “best” insurer or “one-size-fits-all” insurance plan. Every product has its own strengths & weaknesses and it is important that you have them in mind before signing a policy, which certainly takes a lot of browsing, reading and comparing. But with Alea, rest assured that you will get peace of mind as we simplify everything for you.
We tailor each recommendation to suit your specific needs and budget and provide unbiased advice on a case-by-case basis so you can find the best fit for your situation. Even better, our advisory service comes free of charge – since we are remunerated via a commission on the insurance premium you pay directly to the insurance provider!

Do I need international health insurance?
International health insurance overall offers more comprehensive coverage than the vast majority of local plans in Singapore. If you plan to stay overseas for a significant period of time, do carefully consider your choice of international health cover so that you can get the best health care services and treatments wherever you go. Some higher-tier plans can even cover items such as health checkups, dental and maternity benefits.
In particular for Singapore, where private healthcare costs can be sky-high, health insurance can give you more flexibility to use private services and avoid the long waiting time at public hospitals.

- April France
