    Family-First Approach

    Every family is unique, and so are their insurance needs. I work with you to create a customized insurance package that fits your family size, health needs, and budget.

    From newborns to grandparents, everyone in your family deserves quality healthcare protection.

    What's Included in Family Plans

    Family insurance plans are designed to cover all your household healthcare needs comprehensively:

    Core Medical Services

    • Unlimited inpatient hospitalization
    • Outpatient consultations and treatments
    • Surgery and specialized procedures
    • ICU and HDU care
    • Diagnostic tests and lab work

    Specialized Care

    • Maternity and newborn care
    • Pediatric consultations and vaccinations
    • Dental treatments and cleanings

    • Chronic disease management

    Emergency Coverage

    24/7 ambulance services, emergency room visits, and evacuation services ensure your family receives immediate care during critical situations, anywhere in Kenya.

    Special Benefits for Growing Families

    Family plans come with specialized benefits designed for parents and children:

    Maternity Coverage

    Comprehensive coverage for the entire pregnancy journey, from prenatal care to delivery and postnatal checkups.

    • •Antenatal visits and scans (ultrasounds, blood tests)
    • •Normal and Caesarean deliveries
    • •Complications during pregnancy and delivery
    • •Postnatal care for mother and baby

    Child Healthcare

    From birth through adolescence, your children receive comprehensive pediatric care:

    • •Newborn screening and immunizations
    • •Regular pediatric checkups and growth monitoring
    • •Treatment for childhood illnesses and accidents
    • •Dental care and orthodontics (if included)

    Cost Savings with Family Plans

    Family plans offer significant savings compared to purchasing individual policies for each family member:

    Bundle Discount

    Save 20-40% compared to buying separate individual plans. The more family members covered, the better the per-person rate.

    Shared Annual Limit

    Some plans offer a large shared limit that can be used by any family member, providing flexibility when one person needs extensive care.

    Children Coverage

    Children are often covered at reduced rates or even free up to a certain number (typically 3-4 children included at no extra cost).

    Simplified Administration

    One policy, one renewal date, one premium payment – managing your family's healthcare becomes much simpler and more organized.

    Choosing the Right Family Plan

    Consider these factors when selecting a family insurance plan:

    Family Size and Ages: Plans are structured based on family composition. Consider coverage for dependents including children, spouse, and sometimes elderly parents.
    Healthcare Needs: Families with young children need strong pediatric and maternity benefits. Families with teenagers may prioritize accident coverage.
    Hospital Preferences: Ensure all family members' preferred doctors and hospitals are in the network, especially pediatricians and ob-gyns.
    Budget Constraints: Balance comprehensive coverage with affordability. Consider plans with moderate outpatient limits if budget is tight.
    Pre-existing Conditions: Declare all family members' health conditions upfront to avoid claim rejections later.

    Common Questions About Family Insurance

    Can I add a newborn to my family plan?

    Yes! Most insurers allow you to add newborns within 30 days of birth. The baby is usually covered from birth if you notify the insurer promptly.

    What happens when children turn 18 or 25?

    Dependent coverage typically ends at age 18 (or 25 if in full-time education). You'll need to transition them to individual plans or extend coverage if the insurer allows.

    Can I cover my parents on my family plan?

    Standard family plans typically cover spouse and children. For parents, you may need a separate policy or check if your insurer offers multi-generational family plans.

    What if one family member has high medical needs?

    Family plans are ideal in this situation – the shared coverage ensures everyone is protected, and costs are distributed across the family unit rather than falling on one individual.

    How do maternity waiting periods work?

    Most plans require 10-12 months of continuous coverage before maternity benefits activate. Plan ahead if you're expecting or planning to start a family soon.
