AIG Private Client Group, a division of the personal lines property and
casualty insurance subsidiaries of American International Group, Inc.
(AIG), today introduced Basic Health Benefits for Private Staff.
Available to full-time domestic staff employed by AIG Private Client
Group policyholders, Basic Health Benefits for Private Staff is intended
to ease the financial burden of medical expenses as well as minimize
time away from work due to illness or caring for sick family members.
Basic Health Benefits for Private Staff provides fixed-amount, first
dollar accident and sickness coverage for hospital stays, surgery,
critical illness care, preventative care, well-child visits, and
accidental death and dismemberment. Participants can access a nationwide
network of doctors and hospitals offering pre-negotiated discounts. In
addition, they have access to a 24-hour, toll-free nurse hotline and
receive a prescription discount card.
“Many of our policyholders consider their
nannies, home health workers or other domestic employees to be extended
members of the family,” said Charles
Williamson, President, AIG Private Client Group. “Providing
this coverage not only safeguards the well-being of these individuals,
but also it can help employers attract and retain qualified, trustworthy
staff.”
AIG Private Client Group’s Basic Health
Benefits currently is available in all states except for Connecticut,
