In continuing its endeavor to help people ‘win’ by delivering responsive solutions for their constantly evolving needs, Sohar International has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Burjeel Hospital, to offer a range of special services to its customers. The MOU was signed recently at Sohar International’s Head Office by Khalil Al Hedaifi, Chief Retail Banking Officer of Sohar International, and Dr. Rohil Raghavan, Regional CEO-VPS Oman of Burjeel Hospital.

On the side-lines of the MOU’s signing ceremony, Mr Khalil Al Hedaifi said: “Health has been a crucial component of our social responsibility initiatives, and we have been exploring new ways to make a difference to our customers’ lives. Providing winning offers and promotions, we are pleased to enter into this strategic alliance, as the benefits go a long way in ensuring our customers healthful life. Taking every opportunity to create an overarching concept of ‘responsive banking’ to help customers achieve their goals, we always aim to put our customers in a winning position yet again.”

The MOU valid for a period of one year entitles Sohar International’s cardholders to a range of services at Burjeel Hospital that include – 20% discount on all consultations and 2 General Practitioner, 1 Cardiology and 2 Dental consultations free in a year for out-patients; 10% discount and an upgrade to the Royal Suite for in-patients; 20% discount on diagnostics; free ambulance service; 1 free health checkup for Credit Cardholders and 50% discount for their family members; and a 20% discount on Physiotherapy. 

“On behalf of the team of Burjeel Hospital, I would like to extend my gratitude to Sohar International for entering into this partnership with us. Committed to excellence and delivering outstanding quality in all aspects, Burjeel Hospital is known to provide advanced medical and healthcare services in Oman since inception, and has consistently worked towards revolutionizing hospital services and facilities. Through this tie-up, we are delighted to offer Sohar International’s customers our expertise in diagnostic, curative as well as preventative healthcare”, averred Dr. Rohil Raghavan from Burjeel Hospital.

That’s not all – under the “Interactive Easy Payment Plan” program, Sohar International’s credit card (Gold, Platinum, Signature and Infinite) customers will be able to make payments in equal installments over a 3, 6 or 12 month period with zero interest rate for any medical bill amounting to OMR 200 and above, made at any of Burjeel Hospital Oman’s branches. Customers will be notified of their Easy Payment Plan within 48 hours via SMS by Sohar International.

With its strategy being based on providing existing as well as prospective customers with a renewed banking experience that goes beyond conventional norms, Sohar International has pro-actively been providing innovative propositions to cater to customers’ ever-changing needs. The bank’s recent tie-ups saw it enter into a first-of-its-kind banking-telecom partnership to make available the unique eFloos e-payment wallet, and offer a game-changing payment option for patrons. Not just this, Sohar International has also recently inked a MOU with Alargan Towell Investment Company to provide easy and competitive housing loans for prospective buyers.
