Hello Everyone,
I am still relatively new to the kingdom. I have only been here for 3 months.
I was given basic coverage by my employer through Medgulf.
I am wondering what other Health Insurance companies there are in the Kingdom that I could perhaps get for additional coverage.
Your input is greatly appreciated.

Bupa, Medgulf , Mednet and Tawuniya are the top healthcare insurance companies in Saudi, others include Axa, Malath and enaya. There are many others, but no need to go there.

A good option is to ask your HR Department to upgrade your insurance company and you can pay the difference, otherwise it will be expensive to have an individual insurance policy.

I know that this topic is kinda old, but does anyone have an idea about the hospitals covered under Malath insurance?
And also the different classes of insurance of Malath?
