Membership Fees Discount While Staying Abroad
The Welcome program offers its members an exclusive benefit: members of the program staying outside of Israel for at least 3 consecutive months are entitled to a 75% discount on membership fees during their stay abroad, subject to the following terms, while maintaining continuity of entitlements - with no time limit.
Monthly payments
 |
Maccabi may determine an addition to the regular rates, according to the medical condition of a member joining the program. |
 |
Payment of membership fees will take place through a direct debit authorization for an Israeli bank account or through a credit card, in New Israeli Shekels only. |
 |
When joining the program and as a precondition for completing the process, members will pay membership fees for the first 4 months, regardless of the length of membership they want. This fee will be collected in advance one time only. Collection for the first month will be in accordance with the date of acceptance in the program. Maccabi may require an advance payment for a longer period, at its discretion. |
 |
Afterwards, the payment will take place through a direct debit authorization that takes place regularly, according to Maccabi regulations. |
 |
Members of the program who have paid in advance for the minimum period and whose status was changed by the National Insurance Institute to residents entitled to medical services by law, will be entitled to a shorter membership period and a reimbursement of the difference for the period after their eligibility was restored. |
 |
As a rule, no partial months shall be reimbursed, except for those who have finished their waiting period and became residents legally entitled to medical services. |
 |
Members of the program are obligated to pay any and all deductibles for services/treatments that Maccabi may charge under the National Health Insurance Law and/or the collection plans approved for the health service provider, and are not entitled to benefits and/or caps and/or exemptions to these payments that are granted to Maccabi members. |
 |
The payment of fees for the supplementary insurances, nursing care insurance, and Maccabi Fund will be collected in addition to program membership fees. |
All of the above is subject to the Welcome program regulations:
