Employer’s health insurance
Estonia enjoys a good level of national health insurance; however, access to special medical services is made difficult due to long queues. ERGO employer’s health insurance complements national health insurance and provides good added value to the employee motivation package. Voluntary health insurance covers the costs of paid medical services (such as dental care, rehabilitation, vaccinations, and paid doctor’s appointments) through insurance.
Health insurance benefits for the employer:
- Complements the incentive scheme
Every employee appreciates an employer who supports health promotion. Added value without additional tax costs. - Lower costs for the employee’s health promotion
Allows for the costs of mandatory employee health check-ups, purchase of glasses, and vaccinations to be covered. - Employee is more efficient
By getting a quick solution to a health concern, the employee returns to their daily tasks faster. - Quick reimbursement of expenses
The employee communicates directly with the insurer in order to receive the indemnity and does not have to involve the employer.
Depending on the risk
factors in the work environment, the needs of employees may differ. Please
contact us for the most suitable insurance solution for your company.
