Why should I decide to take out private medical insurance with General and Medical?
Competitive prices and good value
From as little as £13 per month you could have private medical insurance. That’s about 43 pence a day, not a lot for your peace of mind. General and Medical's healthcare range also offers value and choice because they work with medical providers throughout the UK to ensure the best rates for their clients.
Choice
You choose when to be treated and where. Lengthy patient waiting times in the NHS are inconvenient and an obstacle to getting the medical attention you want and need quickly. Private health insurance means no queues and access to faster diagnosis and treatment, at a time that suits you and fits in with your lifestyle. Recuperation can be difficult on an NHS hospital ward. Wouldn’t it be so much nicer to recover in the privacy of your own room, have your own television and en-suite facilities, eat good food and most importantly to know that you are being cared for by the same consultant throughout the course of your treatment.
Expert advice and contacts
General and Medical work with the best known names in UK medical healthcare such as Spire (formerly Bupa Hospitals), B.M.I. and Ramsay Hospital groups. This allows them to deliver better care and they are advised by a panel of medical professionals which include the highly respected consultant Neurosurgeon Dr Helen Fernandes. General and Medical's clients can benefit from medical advice dispensed by their 24 hour GP advice line. There is also help available on a variety of legal and financial matters for clients with General and Medical's Employee Assistance Programme. And remember there are no call centres, no call queuing… just people who are there to help you.
