An Exclusive Offer For Global Connections Members

Global Connections and Talent Trust have teamed up to provide a unique offer for UK missionaries who are Global Connections members. We based this plan on our Alpha plan, to provide International Private Medical Insurance with additional care and support for long-term UK missionaries.

We then add your choice of two significant additional benefits:

1. We reduce the price by 20% and allow most medical conditions that you already have to be covered.

or

2. We reduce the price by 30% if you have no pre-existing conditions

The Global Connections Alpha Plan

The GC Alpha Plan is an international private medical insurance plan with exclusive services for missionaries. It is designed to meet not just the medical needs of Global Connections members but also the security, mental health, and wellness needs of those planning to be in the field for more than one year.

The GC Alpha Plan also provides private medical treatment in the UK should a member need to return home for treatment, or during times of furlough.
