DUBLIN, June 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "International Health Insurance Market Primer and Business Guide" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This guide is an introduction to international health insurance for those new to the subject.

International private medical insurance is flourishing. There are more globally mobile individuals than ever before - and employers are building businesses in more diverse countries. IPMI as health insurance without borders is the future of health insurance for all people irrespective of their country of nationality, residence or current domicile.

Compulsory insurance, voluntary top up covers, differences between what you can sell to locals and expatriates, rules on overseas investors, local partnerships, economic sanctions, and even local politics are all things that insurers and brokers must understand.

IPMI is now incredibly complex but is a massive sub-sector of the global health insurance market and there are many misunderstandings that this guide seeks to correct.
