COVID-19 letter sent to policyholders

After 32 years

CEGA will continue to provide its global assistance services to clients of Western Provident Association, (WPA) for a further two years.

WPA has launched a multi-family private medical insurance (PMI) plan enabling policyholders to cover extended family members which may be particularly attractive to baby-boomers financially helping out their children and grandchildren.

Are private medical schemes paying too much to cover too few and could tiered benefits provide a solution, asks WPA's Ellis Turley.

WPA has made changes to its corporate cash plan.

Competition Commission statistics - as part of its private healthcare market investigation - have shown consultants do not reference insurer guidelines when making patient fee levels.
