The kiosk and associated App uses the latest digital technology and provides an advanced platform through which medical professionals can dispense sound and immediate advice to staff.”

National Takaful Company (Watania) CEO, Gautam Datta, added: “We are very privileged to be given the opportunity to partner with Hilal Bank in providing health insurance solutions for their employees and families.
