Dubai’s health insurance system recorded significant growth in coverage indicators and operational activity during 2025 compared to 2024, according to the latest data issued Dubai Health Authority.

Figures show the number of beneficiaries exceeded 4.9 million last year, compared to approximately 4.6 million the year before, representing growth of around 6.5 per cent.

The number of insurance claims rose to around 49.6 million, compared to 43.69 million claims in 2024, an increase of approximately 13.5 per cent.

Data also showed Dubai’s health insurance network includes 3,936 healthcare providers, 140 insurance brokers, 43 insurance companies and 16 insurance claims management entities.
