Private medical & dental benefits

Medical and dental benefits are widely provided by employers, and both are highly valued by employees. Private medical and dental cover accelerates an employee's access to treatment, such as specialist services, scanning and diagnostics, and hospital care, which in turn helps to minimise absences from work. These benefits enable employees to supplement the NHS and avoid the difficulties and costs associated with access to NHS care.

However, understanding plan design and funding levels, which benefits should be provided, and the most cost effective means of providing these benefits can be a time consuming challenge, whether you are dealing with private medical insurance, a medical benefits trust, dental insurance, cash plans or other associated products and services.
