It could cost much less than you think

Because you get to choose the options you pay for – and how you pay for them, subscriptions can be less than you might expect.

Do they already have business healthcare cover?

If your client already has private healthcare cover then ask them when the renewal date for their healthcare plan is. Getting in touch with your client around six weeks before this date is an ideal time to start your conversations. Here are some questions you could ask:

  • What has your experience been like with your current provider?
  • What do you like about your plan?
  • Have you had to use your plan?
