Description

Welcome to the first episode of Abroad With Care, the podcast that makes health easy for expats in Asia.

Moving to Asia can be quite confusing when it comes to health. How do healthcare systems work? As an expat, what do you need to plan to be protected?

In our first episode, Andrea welcomes a great expert to answer these questions: Amelie Dionne, co-founder and managing director of AD MediLink, a leading health insurance broker and advisor in Hong Kong.

But first, you'll hear Xavier’s story. In 2009, Xavier moved from Europe to Singapore with his wife. Getting to know the local healthcare system was quite a shock for him.

Then, you will get the useful insights and real-life tips from Amelie to help you navigate through the healthcare systems in Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand and Vietnam.
