Preparing for Your Private Medical Insurance Review
Think about who you would like to cover, the healthcare benefits that matter to you and a budget you can maintain.
Useful information includes:
The ages of everyone you would like included.
Your postcode and any preferred hospitals.
Details of existing private medical insurance or cover through work.
Your current policy benefits, exclusions, excess and renewal date.
Any consultations, investigations or treatment already planned or underway.
The monthly or annual premium you feel comfortable paying.
We’ll explain the available underwriting methods and guide you through any medical questions the insurer requires. Answer all questions accurately and fully.
If you’re considering switching providers, we’ll help you understand any changes to cover before you decide. Don’t cancel your existing policy until the replacement terms and start date are confirmed.
-
Private medical insurance is generally designed to cover eligible treatment for acute conditions—illnesses or injuries that are expected to respond to treatment.
Depending on your policy, benefits may include private hospital treatment, specialist consultations and diagnostic tests. Outpatient benefits may be limited or optional.
It does not cover every healthcare need. The ongoing management of chronic conditions is generally excluded, and other exclusions and limits apply.
Our advisers will explain the benefits and restrictions of suitable policies before you decide.
-
Pre-existing conditions are often excluded from new private medical insurance policies. The position depends on the insurer, the underwriting method and any previous cover you hold.
You should not assume that symptoms, investigations or treatment already underway will be covered, even if you have not received a diagnosis.
Our advisers will explain how your medical history is treated and any exclusions that apply. If you’re switching providers, we’ll check the proposed terms rather than assume your existing cover will continue unchanged.
-
Your choices depend on the policy’s hospital list, consultant arrangements and benefit limits. Some policies offer a wider selection, while others use a more restricted network.
If you have a preferred hospital or specialist, tell us so we can check the relevant options. You should confirm that treatment is covered and obtain any required authorisation from the insurer before proceeding.
Our private medical insurance advisers will explain how these choices affect your cover and premium.
-
Your premium can depend on your age, postcode, who is covered and the benefits you select. Hospital choices, outpatient limits, underwriting terms and your chosen excess can also affect the price.
A higher excess or more limited benefits may reduce the premium, but could mean paying more yourself when you need treatment. Premiums can change at renewal.
Our private medical insurance advisers will explain the costs and help you balance your healthcare priorities with a budget you can maintain.
-
Yes. Having private medical insurance does not prevent you from using NHS services. Private cover offers an additional option for eligible treatment under your policy.
You may still need NHS care for emergencies, ongoing management of chronic conditions or treatment your policy does not cover.
Our advisers will explain the scope of your private health insurance so you understand how it can work alongside NHS care.
