Allianz International is one of the world’s leading health insurance providers. They have over 85 million customers in more than 70 countries, with offices in 28 countries worldwide. Allianz has been providing insurance for nearly 130 years, so they understand what expats and travelers need to live safely abroad.
Global travelers often lack knowledge of their insurance companies‘ details. Our advice is to take the time to learn about an insurance company’s history, values, and how they compare to those of other companies before deciding to purchase a plan.

The Allianz Care plans include inpatient and day-patient care, medical evacuation, and oncology case manager services.

Allianz Care has three plan levels: Care, Care Plus, and Care Pro.

In most countries, Allianz members can see the provider of their choice, as long as the healthcare service they are looking for is covered under their policy. Allianz medical coverage typically uses a “pay and claim” model: you pay for treatment, file a claim, and Allianz reimburses you for your costs. (Some policies in certain regions include direct billing if you see a doctor in the Allianz network.)
While many international insurance providers, such as Cigna Global or BCBS Global Solutions, have networks that offer direct billing, in which the insurer pays the medical bill directly without requiring you to pay out of pocket, Allianz does not.
Allianz Care offers three coverage areas: Africa only, Worldwide (excluding the USA), and Worldwide (including the USA).
Allianz OneTrip and AllTrips plans offer two coverage areas: Worldwide excluding the USA and Canada, and Worldwide including the USA and Canada.
Allianz Care members seeking a provider can use the Allianz Provider Finder. Allianz Care policyholders who are in the United States are required to use the Global Excel network.
If you are an Allianz Care member, you will file your claims through MyHealth Digital Services. This is the digital portal for all Allianz Care members. File a claim by clicking the “Submit a Claim” button and following the instructions. You will need to provide an invoice from the medical provider for the amount you paid to be reimbursed for your costs. You will also need to include your diagnosis to ensure speedy reimbursement. It pays to file your claim promptly, as Allianz will only pay if you submit it by their deadline. Make sure to retain a copy of all your documents, because Allianz may request supporting documentation as part of their auditing process up to 12 months after your claim has been filed.
If you have an Allianz travel insurance plan purchased in the USA, you can file through the Allianz online portal. (For travel insurance plans purchased in other countries, see your documentation for a link to the online portal for your region.) For a medical claim, you will need copies of all medical bills as well as copies of any accident reports. For a trip cancellation claim, you will need your trip itinerary, proof of payment, penalty or refund information, proof of incident (such as a police report or death certificate), or a letter from your employer if they are requiring you to work. Required documents lists for other claims can be found here.
