Private Medical Insurance – make sure you’re covered
There are fears that NHS waiting lists could rise as a growing number of hospitals face increased financial difficulties. Part of the NHS pledge involves making sure that patients are diagnosed and start treatment within a maximum of 18 weeks from referral.
Considering that private treatment can cost on average £11,215 for a knee replacement
1, can you afford not to be covered?
Private Medical Insurance (PMI) is designed to provide fast access to consultations, diagnosis and, if required, treatment. It can work alongside – or instead of – the service provided by the NHS, depending on the level of cover you choose.
Jelf can offer members one month free of premium on new personal PMI policies.*
Some of the potential benefits include:
- Reduced waiting times for consultations, diagnosis and treatment
- Peace of mind that you’ll be treated in a private hospital, with modern facilities and advanced technology. In some cases, you will get access to treatments and drugs that are not available on the NHS
- Choice over who will supervise your medical treatment and which hospital you wish to visit
- Access to a modern private room, with a television, phone and en-suite facilities
- Flexibility over what level of cover you require
Cash Plans are also available and may be a more affordable alternative for some members.
Take a look at this
case study to see the potential benefits that PMI or a Cash Plan could offer you, including being financially better off, pain free and back to work much sooner.
