Health Insurance for the Small Business Community

As a small business owner duty of care towards your employees has never been so valuable, a healthcare solution which can underpin your wider business reward strategy can help drive sustainable improvements in business performance.

In the UK, we benefit from one of the best healthcare systems in the world. But sometimes you need more, like avoiding long waiting lists for surgery or getting access to cancer treatments not readily available on the NHS. You want the freedom to choose what’s best for you. Some health insurers limit where, when and who can treat you. We believe that’s wrong. It’s your health, so you should be in control.

Having a tailored health insurance policy in place, from a specialist health insurer, gives you the peace of mind that, should you fall ill, you can avoid NHS waiting lists, reduce your time away from work and have treatment at a time that is convenient for you. With access to an extensive choice of hospitals and specialists throughout the UK, you can get back to doing what you do best – running your business.
