Going into hospital for any reason is seldom a pleasant experience and often brings with it additional stress in the form of financial pressure. Often, time off work will mean less pay and you may have unexpected additional bills to pay while you are in hospital, like childminders for instance. From as little as £2.80 per week you could guarantee yourself a substantial tax free income when you become hospitalised through accident or sickness.
With a United Patients policy, if you go into hospital anywhere in the world as a result of an accident or illness, we will pay you a cash income of up to £2,000.00 per month tax-free while you are in hospital and an additional £1,000.00 per month tax-free while you are recovering at home. We pay you for each complete day you spend in hospital up to a maximum of 365 days.
The amount you receive will depend on the plan type you have chosen but we pay up to a maximum of £39,000.00 per year. If you would like to know more about our plans, how much they cost and the different benefits payable under each plan type please click here.
