Medical Cover for contractors from WPA

As a contractor, you should be enjoying all of the benefits that come from leaving permanent employment. These include greater flexibility and probably a higher income, however, with this freedom comes a higher risk that your income could be disrupted by a routine operation or unforeseen illness. Every day that you are not on your client’s site is a day’s income lost forever.

Private Medical Insurance offers you the peace of mind that should you fall ill you can:

- Avoid the NHS waiting list

- Get the best treatment when you need it

- Reduce your time away from work

- Benefit from immediate cover for you and your family

Contractor UK is able to provide preferential rates for you and your family when purchasing Medical Insurance, Dental or an NHS Top Up scheme from WPA.
