Since 1984, International Medical Assistance & Evacuation services
have been at the core of MEDMARK’s work. This unique specialization in
emergency services was developed through our long-standing
relationship with
International SOS – internationally recognized as
the premier provider of medical assistance and evacuation services
world-wide. MEDMARK Health & Life has been the Regional Service Centre
for
International SOS in Egypt for over two
decades.
The International SOS Network of ‘Alarm Centers’ is accessible 24
hours a day 7 days a week. Dedicated and caring doctors, nurses and
other medical professionals are on stand-by to help members in the
event of a medical emergency. International Medical Assistance plans
offered locally by MEDMARK are serviced through an experienced
in-house team of medical doctors in collaboration with highly
specialized international aero-medical teams, offering added peace of
mind for our customers. Over the years, MEDMARK has successfully
executed over 600 emergency medical evacuations both locally and
internationally.
International SOS plans are offered as stand-alone products, and are
also very successful when packaged as a value-added benefit for Credit
Card holders, Medical Insurance Plan members or Members of any
association such as Social Clubs, Sporting Clubs etc. Plans fulfill
the needs of expatriates residing in Egypt as well as Egyptian
nationals living in Egypt or abroad. The flexibility and
cost-effectiveness of our plans make them very suitable for a variety
of different needs.
