Private Medical Insurance

Private Medical Insurance (PMI) aims to cover the cost of treatment for ‘acute conditions’ in a private hospital setting. It is commonly used to avoid long NHS waiting lists and gain immediate access to diagnosis and treatment from specialists and medical professionals.

Many products in the market are modular to allow clients to tailor the policy to suit their demands and needs, including options to cover the whole workforce or defined key categories of employees.

Although the staff themselves benefit from prompt access to treatment, the business also benefits from reduced employee absence.

*Depending on the size of a scheme, each employee is subject to a simple underwriting process to determine if pre-existing conditions are excluded.
