The Association of Medical Insurance Intermediaries has confirmed Natalie-Jane Macdonald, managing director of BUPA and Professor Karol Sikora, Medical Director of CancerPartnersUK will be key note speakers at its annual conference on 1 July.
Macdonald will talk around the main conference theme of ‘Working together for a healthier Britain', especially how funding pressures on the NHS can be alleviated with a greater role for private healthcare, a greater role for employers providing insurance cover for staff, and incentives for healthier lifestyles to reduce long term burdens on the NHS.
Professor Sikora will also continue the theme of working together by discussing the cost of cancer treatments and how the NHS alone will not be able to afford these in the longer term.
These issues will also be explored further in a panel debate chaired by Andy Couchman, in which MacDonald and Professor Sikora will be joined by other key industry figures to take questions from delegates.
The AMII conference is being held at Barcelo Hinckley Island Hotel just outside Coventry and is aimed at AMII members and non-members including IFAs and General Insurance intermediaries.
