Private Medical

With the NHS struggling to meet increasing demands from the UK public, the requirement for Private Medical Insurance (PMI) is increasing. PMI is not there to replace the NHS, but rather to assist the NHS in ensuring that patients are seen in a timely manner by a registered health professional. PMI allows you quicker access to appointments, diagnosis and, if needed, surgery.

It allows you more control over your treatment options and you may be able to choose the location of where you receive the treatment too, depending on the type of policy you go for.

It is there to treat acute conditions, so if you have long term chronic conditions that are already diagnosed, this would not be suitable for you.
