Metropolitan Malawi is the fastest-growing health insurance company in Malawi with the main thrust of providing essential affordable healthcare cover that Malawians can completely trust and rely on. A member of the South Africa-based MMI Holdings Limited Group that was created out of a merger between two reputable insurance companies, namely Momentum (founded in 1966) and Metropolitan (founded in 1897), Metropolitan Malawi has had operations in the country spanning slightly over 6 years and continues to strengthen its market share on a yearly basis. While relatively young compared to its competitors on the market, Metropolitan Malawi is however already being recognized as excelling in product leadership and caring for its customers. Indeed Metropolitan Malawi has a benefit-rich product that provides 100% cover on available benefits of a selected appropriate option plan. The company also has a funeral benefit, which eases the financial burden of funeral expenses to the employer. Furthermore, Metropolitan Malawi has also introduced a health waiver, where dependents will have continued coverage up to a maximum of 6 months or to the end of the benefit year, whichever comes first, in the event of death of the principle member. Other value prepositions, which make Metropolitan Malawi’s scheme unique and real value for money include
• No shortfalls on available benefits
• No waiting periods for corporate clients
• Emergency evacuations
• International referrals
• Repatriation of remains in the event of death, whilst on evacuation or referral
• Personal Health Assessment
• 24-hour hotline for emergencies and counseling
