Benenden Health is making its private healthcare option available to intermediaries through the workplace.
According to Benenden Health, this offers an affordable alternative to private healthcare within the intermediary market. The option targets companies wishing to introduce new employee benefits that are affordable, inclusive of all, simple to use, and quickly implemented.
Benenden Healthcare for Business also offers other services, such as round-the-clock care, 24-hour GP and mental health helplines, and quick access to physiotherapy, medical diagnostics, and treatment.
Benenden Health chief commercial officer Andy Wiggans says: “We know that current environmental concerns such as NHS wait times and the cost-of-living crisis have put health and wellbeing at the top of both employer and employee minds. Therefore, we believe it’s absolutely the right time for Benenden Health to bring our affordable healthcare alternative to the intermediary market as more employers look for cost-effective solutions to help their employees.
“Less than one in five UK employees have any healthcare cover which leaves 80 per cent of the UK workforce unprotected. With Benenden Healthcare for Business, brokers can offer their clients the opportunity to cover every member of their workforce with a private healthcare benefit.
“At just £11.90 a month with no underwriting and a guarantee of acceptance for everyone, Benenden Healthcare for Business is simple to manage and implement and makes business healthcare an affordable reality for all employees.”
