Life is busy, but time is precious. We try to juggle our many competing obligations as though achieving the perfect balancing act means we’re in control – not only of what’s happening now, but what will happen in the future.  Unfortunately, that’s not the case. The unexpected happens every day, and while we can’t always stop it, it’s always within our ability to prepare for it. Some things are too important not to.

Our health, though difficult to define, is one of those things. An ever-changing landscape made of myriad factors, there’s a lot going on in our bodies that we don’t know about. We can’t know it by looking in the mirror, nor can we rely on the number on the scale to give us a true picture of our health.

Covid-19 has placed significant obstacles in the way of not just maintaining our health but accessing treatment and diagnosis.

The issues do not stop at non-essential services, either; 50,000 missed cancer diagnoses have been directly attributed to the strain the coronavirus placed on the NHS, and it’s estimated that this figure will double by the end of this year if clinical activity levels stay the same.[1]

Particularly at this time, private medical insurance (PMI) is the simplest tool to allow your family fast access to diagnosis and treatment. Especially important when you have a family, PMI offers an unbeatable level of convenience. Benefits include remote and on-demand access to GPs and consultants, next-day prescription delivery services, health screening checks and one-to-one counselling.

But more than that, PMI enables you to take a holistic, preventative approach to health: with medical concerns promptly assessed and an excellent standard of care, you can choose to focus on the health of future-you and your family via comprehensive screening checks and improvement plans. All in all, the choice available is so varied that it can be difficult to know if you’re selecting the most appropriate cover.

As award-winning industry experts, Towergate assesses your needs and custom fits your protection based on a full view of the market. The cost of your cover can also be tailored to fit your requirements, e.g., through streamlining your cover or the level of protection. Once you’re covered, you and your family go about your lives as normal – but this time protected.

If you’d like to know more about PMI plans, please don’t hesitate to contact us at SchoolNotices@towergate.co.uk or by calling 0330 123 3593 and selecting the option for health and protection for families.
