Private health insurance for wife and new born

Hi guys,

My wife will be delivering our baby soon. My company does not provide any health insurance here in Qatar. Can you guys help me out with your experience:

I am looking for a health insurance which covers medical problems, general consultations and prescribed medicines for BOTH my wife and our new born baby?

Can you let me know which are the better Insurance companies and what are the approximate costs of the coverage. Will a family health insurance which includes me as well be more expensive, if so by how much approximately? Which are the insurance companies which have tie ups with Al-Ahli hospital and Doha clinic, for example?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

pediatrician?

Does anyone know of a good pediatrician for a three year old? I took my son to our health center today ... and the doctor there looked about 12 years old!!! She didnt know what she was on about, and didnt check my sons ears, throat or chest...and her advice was give him cough medicine when my sons asthma has made a re-appearance!!!

We do not have private health insurance...but can get it if its required.

Please give us the doctors name and if possible a contact number/hospital.

Thanks

Can my pregnent wife get health insurance on arrival in Qatar?

Hi guys,

I am moving to Qatar in 1 month. By the time I move, my wife will be 3 months pregnant. On arrival will we get a health insurance for her that covers her pregnancy?

Can my wife also get a government "health card" as soon as her residence permit is done?

Could you also inform me of the estimated cost of a delivering a child at a local hospital, for example Hamad Medical Corporation?

Legality

I have an open contract and i have been working in this company for almost 4 years but until this time i don't receive even 1Riyal increase. As what i have read in the Labour Law, we are entitled for 10% increase per annum. I have tried several times to request for increment but all of those requests were ignored by the management. Question, if i decided to find another job inside Qatar what are my chances of getting the NOC from my employer if he refused to release me considering my length of service? Another thing, according to Labour Law employer MUST provide health insurance for his employees, unfortunately in my 4 years service with them i don't have any health insurance provided by my employer.

I'll appreciate any suggestions and advices...
