Personal Health Insurance
Personal health insurance can give you more choice over how and where you receive eligible private healthcare. Within the terms of your policy, cover may support consultations, tests, scans, hospital treatment and services that help you act promptly when a health concern arises.
Shield will take time to understand what matters to you, explain suitable options from WPA and provide a personal recommendation based on your Demands and Needs.
Support That Starts with You
You do not need to understand the products or know which benefits to choose before speaking with Shield. Start with what matters to you - whether that is faster access to diagnosis, support for your family, a broader choice of hospitals or reassurance that you can speak to a GP remotely.
Shield will listen, explain the relevant WPA options and recommend a suitable route with clear reasons. You will receive practical help through the application and a familiar point of contact who remains available through to annual renewal.

What Personal Cover May Offer
Guidance Before You Decide
Private medical insurance is designed to complement the NHS rather than replace it. Benefits, limits and exclusions vary and pre-existing conditions may not be covered depending on the underwriting selected. Shield will explain the relevant terms and help you understand the information supplied with any recommendation.
