What is Group Private Medical Insurance ?
Group Private Medical Insurance Policies (PMI) are designed to support wellbeing and provide speedy access to private consultations, diagnosis and if required, treatment for acute medical conditions.
You can opt for either a company paid scheme or a corporate voluntary paid scheme where employees and their families can obtain cover at no cost to the company. This is paid by salary deduction.
PMI benefits the business by reducing staff absence as employees are diagnosed, treated and returned to work faster. It is also seen by many employees as a key benefit, helping with recruitment and staff retention.
