Employee illness costs your company both time and money -
unless you're properly covered
Absenteeism costs British businesses £11.8 billion*
annually, over a third of which being genuine
long term illness (over a week).
But with 1.5 million waiting over four weeks for
their first NHS consultation and nearly a million
waiting more than 13 weeks for treatment or
further consultation**, health insurance represents
a popular and attractive benefit for both employer
and employee.
For the employer, it's an effective way to help
control absence and manage your company's
most valuable asset. Treatment and consultations
can be arranged at the most optimum time.
Employees will have the reassurance of knowing
they can quickly gain access to treatment with
real patient choice at a time of their choosing.
As truly independent private healthcare solution specialists,
Advo Group can help you find the right cover
from a confusing choice of over 20 leading
health insurers, each offering at least 5 schemes.
Appointed by and working solely on your behalf,
your company's specific needs and interests are
at the forefront of all advice given.
Our website provides free services designed to
reduce your day to day administration as much
as possible. Scheme details and alterations are
available online, whilst retaining the assurance
that your dedicated contact still looks after the
scheme and is available to answer any queries.
All staff covered receive a membership card with a
specific number and a separate password allowing
them to check their cover online. They also have
access to the treatment locator, which finds them
their nearest treatment centre that they can use
on their scheme.
