    Private Healthcare.

    Who has it?

    How much do you pay? What does it cover you for?

    Is it a rip off? Who recommends it?

    etc etc etc

    Ive got Bupa. Never used it. Just thought i was getting old when i turned 30 and i know the NHS is tulipe. Its £72 a month for the top cover that covers existing injuries/ailments.

    Pricey but the piece of mind is worth it.

      Join the PCG and get 25% off bupacareI'm just finding out how much it's going to cost me at the moment. I have a feeling the discount on insurances and the discount on healthcare will probably be worth more than my PCG subscription

      also if you join do a google for discount vouchers, I managed to get 15% off my subs for 5 mins google work!

          Do you think Bupa and the like is only useful for serious stuff like Cancer and that?

          Or do they give you a full medical and fix anything thats a bit dodgey (i.e. allergies and stuff)?

            I enquired with BUPA a a couple of years ago, guy came around talked about options, gave me a quote and then dropped it by 20% when I said I was an IT Contactor

              SA - as far as I know private health covers will not pay for allergy tests or stomach stapling operations - they'll only pay for tests that are referred to by your GP, so you still need to convince your GP that you need the tests. Doing it privately means you get it done fast and when you need it, that's all.

                    I got all those tests (Except the MRI and Colonoscopy ) for £350 when i joined Bupa. It was all at a Bupa medical centre (Id say 4 stars maybe). Sounds a bit pricey to me.
