Global Shield and Purple Shield health plans designed for Filipino families

Oona Insurance has unveiled its two flagship health products designed for Filipino families seeking comprehensive and flexible protection. The official launch, held on October 1 at the Manila Marriott Hotel, introduced Global Shield and Purple Shield, both offering world-class benefits tailored to evolving healthcare needs.

Global Shield provides international coverage of up to USD 2 million, ideal for globally mobile Filipinos. It offers access to leading hospitals and specialists worldwide, with treatment options in Singapore and across the region. Purple Shield, on the other hand, is a premier peso-based plan offering up to ₱5 million in local coverage for families who prefer care closer to home.

These products aim to address rising medical costs and the demand for quality private healthcare. By providing both global and local coverage options, Oona moves away from the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional insurance, giving families a choice that fits their needs.

What sets Oona apart is its digital-first platform. Members can access instant quotes, same-day policy issuance, real-time claim tracking, and paperless onboarding with e-signatures. Overseas claims are also fully digital for faster processing. This ecosystem makes health protection simpler and more convenient.

Oona also prioritizes preventive care. Benefits include wellness check-ups, vaccinations, mental health support, and telemedicine. Partnerships with MediLink and Doctor Anywhere provide cashless transactions in over 650 hospitals and clinics nationwide and 24/7 online access to more than 750 doctors.

Abhishek Bhatia, Founder and Group CEO of Oona Insurance, emphasized that Filipinos need a new standard of health protection that goes beyond covering hospital bills. Ninoy Rollan, CEO of Oona Philippines, added that health protection must be holistic to give everyday peace of mind to families.

Global Shield and Purple Shield mark Oona’s commitment to creating health plans that are accessible, flexible, and family-focused. With seamless digital access and comprehensive protection, Oona redefines health insurance for Filipinos both at home and abroad.
