Health Insurance For Turks Abroad

Turkish citizens, foreign citizens and tourists included

The project targets Turkish citizens living abroad, foreign citizens living in Turkey, and tourists visiting Turkey. The three groups will benefit from free health-services after taking out policies with international insurance companies affiliated with the hospitals.

Health-services 50 percent cheaper in Turkey

The project is based on the fact that health-services in Turkey are about 50 percent of the cost of services in Europe, and will exploit this gap for economic benefits—including increased employment for doctors and nurses. The hospitals will be established in metropolitan areas, touristic cities, and cities hosting the bulk of foreign residents, such as Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir.
