With streamlined access to M42’s UAE network, international patients can expect a more coordinated healthcare experience, covering areas such as renal care, chronic disease management, diagnostics, women’s and children’s health, specialty surgeries, and long-term care. The platform already serves 1.3 million global healthcare seekers annually and is projected to reach 2 to 3 million by 2025, reflecting growing demand for high-quality medical services abroad.

The UAE’s strategic location allows one-third of the world’s population to reach it within four hours, while two-thirds are within eight hours, further enhancing its appeal as a medical destination. With over 480 facilities across 26 countries, M42 continues to expand its international reach while maintaining integrated, high-standard care.

By removing barriers around financing, payment security, and patient logistics, this collaboration reinforces the UAE’s vision of providing accessible, transparent, and world-class healthcare to patients from across the globe.
