Allianz Health Insurance in China

Allianz Health Insurance in China

Allianz for quite a long time has been the only foreign insurance company that didn’t engage in joint venture with a local partner. That has changed recently as they have signed partnership agreements with several local players pursuing larger penetration of the market. Most noticeable are Allianz JD, Allianz Huatai, Allianz Prosper, Allianz CPIC. Recently Allianz has also decided to appoint MSH as their service provider. This means that all ongoing support for direct billing and claims will be handed over to MSH on behalf of Allianz.

Allianz JD is the core selection of Allianz plans commonly known as Diamond series. There is also several options available here for child alone insurance policies. Meaning, adults can opt out of insurance and let kids under 18yo be insured on their own.

Allianz Huatai is a newly merged portfolio of ex Aetna clients. Once Aetna quitted China market in 2022, Allianz was the one to pick up their portfolio and runs it under their own brand now. You can also sign up for Ultracare plan with them directly now. Additionally, they take transfers from Aetna overseas insurance clients who seek relocation to Mainland China.

Allianz Prosper. Prosper is a member-centric insurance provider. Similar to MSH they do servicing on behalf of Allianz. However they have launched their own portfolio of plans that are available for all China residents.

Allianz CPIC or also known as Allianz China Pacific partnership. At current this company only works with corporate insurance schemes. They do not have individual or family insurance available for purchase in China.
