If you end up being injured or become ill, health insurance can cover the cost of private treatment. It is possible to get cover for a wide range of treatments that may not otherwise be free under the NHS.

The main advantage of taking out private health insurance is that you get much quicker access to appointments than if you were treated via the NHS. You also get more choice over which hospitals, clinics and consultants that you use – so you can get seen to quicker and at a location of your choice.

The ability to get seen quicker means that you potentially save yourself from a lot of pain, whether it is toothache, back pain or a condition that you would like to get checked for sooner rather than later. For those people that value their health and their time, private health insurance can be a very good investment.

What Is Included in Health Insurance Policies? 

  • Exclusive drugs
  • Diagnostic treatment
  • Hospital stay and nursing care
  • Inpatient care (if staying in hospital overnight)
  • Outpatient care (stays that do not require staying in a bed)
  • Extras including private ambulances, helplines, accommodation for family members (see terms of the policy)

Do health insurance policies cover pre-existing conditions?

Some insurers will include them, but there are many who will not pay out for them. Therefore, always check the terms and conditions of the policies you are comparing if this is a concern for you.

Does my current health status affect the cost of a health insurance policy?

Yes, if you have existing conditions, your policy could cost more overall. However, this is not the case with all insurance companies: some only charge you more if you will need to cover further treatment for these existing medical conditions.

Can I still use the NHS if I have health insurance? 

Yes, it is still possible to get free treatment on the NHS, or you can decide to use your cover to pay for private treatment.

Will I need to have a medical check before getting health insurance?

Yes, some may require you to have medical tests to have a policy, whilst others may require you to write a declaration about your health.

Do I need a medical check with a moratorium policy?

This is where you have a previous condition but have been symptom-free for a certain number of years. Typically, you will not need to have a medical check for this type of policy.

Can I choose any hospital or doctor under a health insurance policy?

Yes, the majority of health insurance companies will provide you with a choice of medical facilities if you are referred for treatment under your policy.

Does health insurance cover me whilst abroad?

No, the majority of policies only cover medical treatment in the UK, but it is possible to get cover under a travel insurance policy instead.

Is it possible to get a family health insurance policy?

Yes, you can get a family healthcare policy or you can opt for individual policies for all family members. This can often be cheaper to insure each person because it is like you are buying in bulk.

Can I get health insurance if I am disabled?

Yes, but you need to bear in mind that some providers do not always provide cover for conditions that are related to your disability. As a result, it is important to verify this information in policies you compare if this may affect you.
