Health insurance excess
The higher the excess, the lower we can set your premium
As with home and car insurance, you can choose to pay a fixed sum - an excess – towards your treatment. You can set your excess at zero, £100, £250, £500 or £1,000.
Choose how your excess works
Once you’ve chosen an excess, you can decide how you pay it:
Once per plan year
(per person)
You'll only pay your excess once per plan year for each person on the plan.
- If you make more than one claim in the same plan year, you won’t pay the excess again for that person
- If your treatment continues into a new plan year, you’ll need to pay the excess again
- Each person on the plan has their own excess
Each time you claim
(per person, per claim)
You'll pay an excess each time you make a claim.
- This applies to every new claim you make
- If you claim again for the same condition after 12 months, we treat this as a new claim
- Each person on the plan pays their own excess for each claim they make
