Small business health insurance, with big employee benefits

Business is all about people. So looking after your employees' wellbeing can make a real difference to them, and your business. Whether you look after two or 249 people, our small and medium business health insurance can help.

They'll get fast access to private healthcare when they need it the most. If they need to stay in a private hospital, we'll pay the consultant fees in full, for any covered treatment. We're proud of being an insurer to offer a Full Cover Promise. And if they live a healthy life, we’ll reward them and your business, for their positive lifestyle choices. Those are some of the reasons why we have a 5 Star Rating from Defaqto.

If you're looking for your own cover as a small business owner, we also offer private health insurance.

Are you looking to cover 100+ employees?

If you'd rather have a unit price per member, choose our corporate health insurance. If you're not sure what you're after, give us a call on 03453075071.

Share the benefits of healthy living with your employees

Our Vitality Programme helps you improve employee health, through rewards for healthy living. By encouraging your employees to get active, they will get rewards for their efforts. Like discounts on the new Apple Watch Series 6.

To access their plan's benefits and rewards, all they need to do is complete a Health Review in our Member Zone. Then they can track their activity and earn points to build a Vitality status.

The higher the status, the bigger the rewards.

Give your employees easy access to healthcare

If they need to claim on their cover, it’s quick and easy to get care. We provide digital tools that they can access, whenever and wherever they need it:

Vitality GP app
Our Vitality GP app allows them to book an online appointment with a private doctor.

Care Hub
Our Care Hub allows them to:
- self-refer for physiotherapy or cognitive behavioural therapy
- request care for a new condition, and
- view treatment information like upcoming appointments.

For anything else, Member Zone gives them a ‘one-stop shop’ online to access their plan and benefits.

Get healthcare benefits for your business too

When your employees get healthier, they'll improve their Vitality status. We then reward your business with cashback on your premium.

Our digital tools also extend to helping you manage your group employee scheme. Our Employer Hub helps you to add joiners or remove leavers. We also provide engagement support to help you promote Vitality in your business.
