Private Medical Insurance (PMI)
When NHS waiting lists are months rather than weeks, and where the best care seems to be available privately, an increasing number of people are taking their medical care into their own control to ensure they get prompt attention and quality treatment.
Suitable for both private individuals or for a business and their employees, this cover can protect not only the initial applicant, but also their spouse/partner and children.
The benefits of private medical insurance are clear:
- Fast treatment meaning less time off work and income maintained
- Choice of cover and often of hospital treatment provided at
- Access to high end medical care
For employers the benefits go further:
- Less sick time taken by key employees
- Perceived as a high value employee benefit for staff
The key is to choose the right private medical policy researched from the whole of the market.
