What’s not covered
Here are the main things that aren’t covered as standard in our private health insurance:
- Treatment of medical conditions that you had – or had symptoms of – before you joined, unless you’ve switched from another plan and have underwriting called ‘continuing medical exclusions’.
- Treatment of ongoing, recurring and long-term conditions, such as diabetes or asthma (we call these ‘chronic conditions’).
- Preventative treatment or tests when you don't have symptoms as well as treatment that hasn't yet proven to be effective.
- Charges for treatment received outside of our Directory of Hospitals, unless you have our Extended Cover option.
- There are some specialists whose costs we can’t cover in full, so please call us if you need to claim.
- Routine pregnancy and childbirth - we do offer free cover on your plan for your newborn until your renewal date (restrictions may apply).
