Why have medical insurance
Most people have good reason to be grateful
to the NHS for life saving surgery, curing the sick, or improving
the quality of our lives.
Unfortunately, as medical expertise and the
demand for treatment continue to outstrip NHS funding and building
programmes, waiting lists can become unacceptably long. In
these situations, private treatment has a role to play, helping
to take the pressure off the NHS, although the cost of paying
for private treatment can, for many, prove prohibitive.
Alternatively, the cost of private treatment
can be covered by Private Medical Insurance, purchased directly
from the insurer or through an Independent Intermediary.
How
do you find the right policy for you?
Halcyon HealthCare, as experienced intermediaries,
will act in your best interests, researching policies offered
by a number of insurers and recommending those that meet your
budget and your particular healthcare needs.
The freedom to
see the consultant of your choice and to decide when and
where you are treated, can prove invaluable for everyone and
particularly for key executives and busy staff.
Keeping ourselves
healthy and fit for work is vital for the well-being of our
families and for the health of our business.
Keeping staff healthy
and minimising time off is also good for business |
Speed,
choice & comfort
These are the three key benefits of having PMI medical insurance
Speed = When you are unwell, PMI gives you access to a consultant
quickly. The faster a problem is daignosed, the quicker it
can be treated.
Choice = if you can't get treatmed
on the NHS, you don't need to wait. Often you can choose the
hospital and surgeon of your choice, without the queues.
Comfort = a private room, flexible
visiting hours, choice of food etc
With NHS queues of a year for non-urgent operations and consultants
booked up months ahead, it is no wonder that over 8 million
people in Britain are covered by medical insurance policies.
