Health cash plan with Simply Health
Find out more about how the health cash plan can benefit you.
A Health Cash Plan is a type of health insurance policy that helps you to cover the cost of the healthcare needs of you and your family. We all know that these costs are increasing, and a Health Cash Plan is an affordable way to manage the costs.
For a small monthly premium, you can claim cash back on the cost of routine, but essential treatment up to a pre-set maximum amount in your claim year. This will include cashback on your spending for prescriptions, dental and optical care, plus additional care including physiotherapy and osteopathy, and hospital in-patient stays for treatment.
In addition to the cash back offering, policy holders also have access to 24 hours a day, 7 days a week phone lines where you can talk to a registered GP to seek advice and reassurance. No medical examination is required, and you can join up to the age of 65.
Simply Health have an excellent reputation, they are a leading provider of Health Cash Plans in the UK market. They offer competitive rates, plus, claiming cash back is very simple: you make your claim online by uploading a photo of your receipt and completing the claims process in a matter of minutes.
We have secured a corporate rate with Simply Health to enable staff to benefit from a discounted rate policy with increased benefits from those policies available to the public.
You can choose a policy to cover yourself plus a partner living at the same address and up to four children for a small additional cost so that each of you can claim up to the pre-set maximum amount in your claim year. For example: the monthly cost of level 1 cover is currently £16.70 for you, £30.85 for you and your partner and £1.50 extra for up to four children (September 2024 prices)
