Questions to ask before deciding

Before comparing prices, ask any broker — including this one — to confirm:

  • the hospital list and any regional restrictions
  • outpatient and diagnostic limits
  • whether pre-existing conditions are covered or excluded
  • the excess and how it applies per claim or per year

When an additional quotation may help

Buyers in St Albans can consider local and remote brokers. Neither is automatically a better fit; check the service description, policy terms and price before choosing.

What to ask about the broker's service

Ask any broker how it is paid and whether it charges fees. The answer should be set out in its client documentation, alongside the service it provides and any relevant disclosure about remuneration.

Making a like-for-like comparison

Price is only one part of a private health insurance decision. Compare the hospital list, outpatient and diagnostic limits, underwriting terms, and any excess as well as the premium, using the insurer's policy documents and a personalised explanation where appropriate.

Understand the broker's service

The basis of a broker's service matters as much as the headline premium. Ask which insurers were considered and whether the quote is based on a selected range or a wider market analysis.
