AAR Health Services Ltd has converted into AAR Insurance Kenya Ltd and is now offering ALL insurance services, not just health covers.

Interesting to note that this company started as Africa Air Rescue [hence the name AAR] providing air ambulance services; then it widened into a health insurance company; then became a health management company [with own clinics]; then added premium financing services; and now it has become a fully-fledged insurer.

What next?

I suspect they'll grow the premium financing business into a fully-fledged bank.....

I expect AAR to remain even more profitable. The insurers have been making all the profits while squeezing AAR. I am waiting for the IPO

That doesn't make sense. The insurance companies and AAR are in competition. AAR was a HMO so they had clients who they mainly managed in their facilities and they few they didn't manage would be admitted.

Insurance companies get clients and approach hospitals who offer the service in return for payment.

If there is any squeezing been done it's between insurance companies and hospitals and between AAR and hospital but not between insurance companies and AAR.

Does anyone have AAR financials?

The guys who insure AAR's medical business must make a profit so the company has literally been sharing profits with an insurer. AAR will now make this extra margin.
