Group Private Medical Insurance

Helping to keep you, your people and your business healthy

What is Group Private Medical Insurance?

Group Private Medical Insurance (GPMI), taken out by the business, is designed to provide valuable healthcare support for your employees and your business by complementing the services offered by the NHS.

PMI enables employees to quickly see a specialist of their choice, receive treatment at a time and place to suit them which means they should be able to return to work sooner therefore minimising any disruption to your business.

You pay a monthly premium and the policy pays out, up to specified cover limits, for any private treatment your people need.

  • Costs can be treated as a bona-fide business expense.

Benefits to your employees

  • Fast access to treatment when they need it most.
  • Convenience that treatment can be planned to suit busy lifestyles and commitments.
  • Peace of mind that healthcare advice and treatment is available without long wait times.
  • Specialist mental health services - Many Private Medical Insurance policies can provide mental health support services quickly and discreetly.
  • Access to virtual GPs - Many insurers offer a 24-hour virtual service, providing an initial assessment in the comfort of your own home.

Employee Health Cash Plans

Health Cash Plans differ from medical insurance because they are designed to reduce your employees’ out-of-pocket everyday health expenses.

Group Dental Insurance

Oral health plays such an important role in overall health and wellbeing. As an employer, helping employees to access private dental care will lead to good oral health and lessen the likelihood of absenteeism or taking extra time off work for treatment.
