Corporate health insurance

Corporate health insurance is an increasingly popular employee benefit. It helps your people access specialist diagnosis and treatment faster and with more choice than the NHS often provides.

It’s designed for larger businesses, with some insurers offering it to companies with 100+ employees, and others starting from 250 or more. An alternative might be small business health insurance, depending on the company's size and the type of scheme you are looking for.

Corporate health insurance can be tailored around the needs of the business and its people. You can choose the level of cover, choice of hospitals for treatment, excess and additional benefits. Some schemes include the option to provide the same benefits to everyone or shape cover for different individuals or groups.

This degree of choice across the market means there can be more to consider than simply comparing premiums. It's important to get the right balance between the type of cover and how your chosen scheme fits your employee benefits strategy and budget.
