Take control of your health this New Year

Feel supported with private health insurance for you and your family

-

Our health is important, and this time of year tends to be when we start to think about getting healthy and fit for the year ahead. That’s why Mail Finance are introducin­g AXA PPP healthcare to provide you with their Personal Health plan, plus you’ll receive a FREE Nuffield Health Lifestyle Assessment.*

At AXA PPP healthcare you can rely on us to support you for the treatment of new medical conditions that arise after you join. You can be safe in the knowledge that we will do everything we can to help you get your treatment booked in at a time that suits you and get you back on the road to recovery. We even cover cancer as standard, subject to your medical history, meaning you’ll be able to access breakthrou­gh treatments, including in-patient cancer drugs as soon as they’re licensed.

Be treated in comfort

Should you need to stay in one of our 250 facilities from our Directory of Hospitals, you could benefit from the comfort of your own private hotel style room, usually with en-suite facilities, a TV and a choice of meals, so you can relax knowing you’re being looked after.

24/7 telephone support

Should you need someone to talk to if you’re feeling apprehensi­ve about your health, we have a fabulous team of medical profession­als at the end of a phone or via email to discuss your concerns. Our Health at Hand team are available 24/7 and 365 days of the year, so if you’re feeling nervous about an upcoming operation, have something that’s keeping you awake at night, or you have a question about your health, you can have peace of mind knowing that there is always someone here to support you. We’re happy to help and be a listening ear when you need us most.

Physiother­apy as soon as pain strikes

The earlier you get help, the sooner you can start feeling better. As a member of AXA PPP healthcare, you’ll be able to access our Working Body team+ as soon as you need support for your muscles, bones and joints. They can set up your initial telephone consultati­on with a physiother­apist who will call you back at a time that fits in with your schedule.

Your Working Body physiother­apist will be able to assess your symptoms over the phone, and talk to you about what they could mean.

If they think exercises could ease your pain, they’ll talk you through some you can try at home, at the gym – or even at work.

If you need further treatment, such as handson therapy, they’ll recommend next steps, so long as you’ve chosen our Therapies option.

Just like a GP, your Working Body physiother­apist can refer you to a specialist if they think your condition should be looked into further. Our personal advisers will pre-authorise your treatment and arrange an appointmen­t for you, so you don’t have to worry.

Speak to us to discuss your options

We have a number of additional options you can add to your plan, such as the Therapies option. So give one of our team a call on

0800 022 4477, to discuss the choices available and get a no obligation quote. If you prefer, you can get a quote online at: mailfinanc­e.co.uk/healthinsu­rance.
