  • Simplifying Health Insurance for NRIs in the UAE | NRI Care Health Insurance
    Apr 27 2026
    The NRI journey isn't one-size-fits-all. Some of us moved to the UAE alone, building a career from scratch. Either alone, or with family, alot of Non-Resident Indians in the UAE might juggle with either two health plans, one in the UAE and one in India, or suffer from coverage gaps when they move back to India. In this episode, Mr. Yashish Dahiya, Chairperson and CEO of PB Fintech Limited, explains how health insurance in the UAE and India operate very differently, and why relying on one country’s coverage can leave you exposed in the other. We dig deep into the NRI Care Health Insurance plan and understand why planning early across both geographies, instead of reacting later, can make a significant difference to long-term financial security.
