Doctor on call: NHS to recommend health apps
22 Feb 2012
Family health insurance provides protection for the whole family, allowing you, your partner and your children to access the best medical treatment as soon as possible if any of you fall ill. Taking out a family policy should work out cheaper than taking out individual policies for each of you. Older policyholders will have to pay higher premiums, but children can be insured relatively cheaply in these packages.
Alternatively, you could consider health cash plans. These help to cover the cost of your family's routine medical checks, such as visits to the dentist, optician or chiropodist and will pay a lump sum whenever these occasions occur.
