The Specialist Medical Excess Insurance and Shortfall Protection Plan
DESIGNED TO GENERATE SAVINGS ON YOUR group HEALTHCARE PREMIUMS
REDUCE YOUR MEDICAL INSURANCE PREMIUMS
You introduce (or increase) an excess within your existing group healthcare policy. You will receive a discount from your current insurer.
We then provide an insurance policy that reimburses the cost of the excess at point of claim (as well as covering shortfalls up to £500).
The result in the vast majority of cases is a net saving, lower P11D rate and enhanced shortfall protection cover.
WHAT’S AN EXCESS
Most of us have an excess on our insurance policies. The excess is the amount you have to pay in the event of a claim. In general, the larger your excess is the lower your insurance premium will be (because of the discounts offered by the insurance company).
HOW IT WORKS
For example, if you have a £250 excess on your Group Medical Insurance policy and you have a claim for £1000, you are liable for the first £250 of the claim and the insurance company pays £750.
Your medical excess and shortfall insurance policy is designed to reimburse you for the £250 excess you were charged.
WHAT’S A SHORTFALL
Shortfalls arise when there is a difference between the level of reimbursement that insurance providers are prepared to pay and the fees consultants and hospitals charge. It is your responsibility as the patient to pay the shortfall. Your medical excess and shortfall insurance policy is designed to reimburse any shortfall up to the policy limits.
PAYS PMI EXCESS UP TO £500 PLUS AN ADDITIONAL £500 FOR SHORTFALLS
REDUCE YOUR MEDICAL PREMIUMS
As Medical Insurance premiums continue to rise and challenge budgets, introducing or increasing an excess will reduce your premiums. Insure your excess & have additional protection in the event of a policy shortfall with the specialist medical excess and shortfall protection company, Medex Protect.
