41 maltatoday, Sunday, 2 February 2014 Events Added benefits to Middlesea Health insurance Middlesea Insurance has enhanced its health insurance product to pro- vide additional benefits which go beyond those usually provided by an insurer. Middlesea has launched two new features: Mediphone and We Care, whilst improving the already existing service of Second Medical Opinion. Mediphone is a 24-hour telephone medical advice service which allows clients to contact a doctor who can offer guidance in the event of any health-related circumstance. This comprises an extensive selection of services such as sending a doctor, nurse and medication to the Insured's home and putting them in contact with specialists. Middlesea Insurance has also made arrangements with We Care Com- pany Ltd, whereby persons insured by certain Middlesea Health Insur- ance Schemes will be eligible for spe- cial discounts on the various services provided by We Care. Some of these services include care workers, spe- cialised tutors, counsellors, nurses, occupational therapists, psycholo- gists, psychotherapists, physiothera- pists, speech language pathologists and social workers. Middlesea's Health Insurance poli- cies already include an exclusive Sec- ond Medical Opinion Service pro- gram, which is now being provided by Middlesea Assist which forms part of an International Assistance Network. If one diagnosed with a serious illness and would like to get further confir- mation, this benefit gives the patient access to a network of acknowledged international medical experts. "We are very happy to launch these new features as we believe that now, more than ever, we are going that extra mile for our customers. The launch of these new products proves our commitment to offering more than just conventional insurance," said Simon Anastasi, Chief Officer of Underwriting at Middlesea Insur- ance.

That's what the Banif Sports and Social Committee kept in mind when putting together a fun morning for Bank employees' little ones, in the annual Kids Christmas Party held at Montekristo Zoo. Monkeys, racoons, big cats and small birds, owls, f lamingos, ducks, ponies and farm animals stole the show as the children pet- ted and fed them. Father Christ- mas was his jolly self as he gave out gifts to the eager children who lined up for the presents without much effort.
