What is private health insurance?
Private medical insurance (PMI) gives you quick access to private facilities and treatments, It helps pay for any high unexpected private medical bills you may need covered. This could be anything from physiotherapy sessions, to major heart surgery. PMI also plays an important role in funding the early diagnosis of critical conditions.
How does health insurance work?
You pay monthly health insurance premiums. When your GP refers you to a specialist, you make a claim with your insurer. You’ll be able to choose who treats you, and at which hospital.
Choose your medical insurance plan
Choose your insurer and your excess amount. This is the amount you agree to pay towards your treatment if you make a claim. The higher your excess, the lower your premiums.
Pay your premium
This is the cost of your medical insurance plan. It’s usually taken as a monthly Direct Debit.
See a GP when you’re unwell
This can either be your NHS GP or a private GP, like Vitality GP. If you need to see a specialist or get treatment, they’ll refer you.
Contact your insurer and make a claim
When you contact your insurer, they can find a consultant for you. They will ask about your symptoms and when they started. They will assess your claim. When it’s approved, you can receive treatment.
Your private healthcare bill is paid
Once you’ve received your treatment, the hospital will send your insurer the invoice. In some circumstances you may need to pay your excess. For example, if your treatment cost £1,000 and your excess is £250, the insurer will cover £750, and you’ll pay £250.
