Bupa launches employees’ Dental Plan

| March 20, 2010 | 0 Comments

Bupa is providing up to £15,000 of cover for oral cancer under its new Dental Plan, which will be available from April and can be paid for either by employers, or offered as an employee-paid voluntary benefit.

The health care specialist claims this level of cover is the highest in the market and points out that the policy features some other attractive benefits, such as full reimbursement for NHS treatment, routine treatment overseas, anaesthetist benefit and up to £1,000 a year for hospital stays.

Five levels of cover are available, with premiums starting at £3.51 a month.

Benefits range from a full refund for NHS treatment, through to orthodontic care for child dependants and emergency dental treatment overseas.

The firm’s head of dental, Ivan Kennedy, comments: “We have listened to employers, employees and intermediaries and designed our new plan to include a range of benefits they say they value the most.”

He adds: “Dental insurance is a highly-valued employee benefit because it is one that most employees can use at least twice a year.”

Last week, Bupa announced that it is offering group critical illness claimants (and their families) access to independent and confidential advice, guidance and medical information, at no extra cost.

The group’s Best Doctors service is backed by 50,000 medical professionals.
