What is health insurance?

Health insurance gives you access to private healthcare in the UK and helps cover the cost. This can be anything from private GP appointments to cancer treatment.

Health insurance is also called medical insurance, private medical insurance or private health insurance. They're all the same thing.

Why our Health Cover?

Full Cover
Promise

If you're admitted to hospital, we'll pay your consultant and anaesthetist fees in full. We promise to pay for this as long as the treatment is eligible, and the consultant is recognised by us. We’re the only health insurer in the UK to offer this guarantee as part of our core cover

Benefits of our Health Cover?

Access to
private healthcare

Specialist
treatment

Private health insurance can help pay for the costs of specialist drugs and treatment.

Choice and
privacy

You can choose where you are treated, and who by.

What does health insurance cost in the UK?

Monthly premiums vary from person to person. Premiums are calculated based on many factors, like your:

Age
Current health
Lifestyle factors (for example whether you smoke or not)
What your chosen excess is – the higher your excess, the lower your premium will be.

Why use a broker?

The media push the idea of using comparison sites all the time for obtaining the best deal, as tempting as it can be this is often not the best idea when it comes to financial products, instead we recommend the use of a specialist mortgage & general insurance broker.

Using a mortgage & general insurance broker greatly enhances your chances of not only getting a mortgage/insurance product but also getting a deal that is right for you. There is no doubt that comparison sites can be helpful but with something as important as your mortgage/life protection we feel you are better of getting the personal touch. By using us at MGI Direct we will analyse your circumstances and pick a product for you that fits the information you provide.
