Equipsme business health insurance isn’t just opening up private health to your employees – it’s doing the same for their families. That means a spouse/partner and children aged under 25.
We believe we’re the only provider in the market who let individuals add family members and pay directly.
Here’s four reasons to encourage employees to add family to their plan
1. Family health impacts employee productivity
When a loved one is ill, your workers are going to be thinking about them, worrying about them - and even taking time off to look after them. That’s going to have a direct impact on their productivity.
Encouraging your people to add THEIR people onto their plan means everyone can get help to get better, faster, and have the peace of mind with health back-up when they need it.
2. No administration, and no extra costs
The really good news for your HR teams is that employees can add family to their Equipsme plan with no extra admin required from your company, and no P11D tax implications.
It’s all done through the employee’s Equipsme portal, where they set-up their own direct debit with us for payments.
3. Affordable, flexible cover
We strive to make the cost of adding family really good value. Employees match what YOU pay for their partner, and half again to add children – one single payment for up to 6 children, up to the age of 25.
That means if you’ve purchased a £23 Level 3 diagnosis plan, the employee also pays £23 for their partner, and £11.50 for children. So they can buy the same cover for up to 6 more people (their partner and five kids) for just £34.50 a month.
What’s more, they can add family members during the plan year. That means it’s never too late to include them, and never too late to remind people that you’ve opened up the option for them to get private health back-up for their family, too.
4. We’ve made it really easy!
