Chamber Healthcare

Healthy staff for a healthy business.

Whether it’s absence you need to manage, or recruitment and retention that need a boost, the exclusively available Chamber Primary Health Plan has been developed in conjunction with the British Chambers of Commerce to meet your needs.

Designed with Chamber members in mind:

Chamber Primary Health provides employees with cash benefits towards routine healthcare such as new glasses or contact lenses, dental treatment, therapy treatments and consultations.  Access to diagnostic scanning facilities, an Employee Assistance Programme, personal accident cover and a brand new service known as ‘surgery choices’ are also available.

An effective absence and risk management tool and a valuable employee benefit, the Chamber Primary Health Plan could help you to:

  • Reduce absenteeism and related costs
  • Recruit and retain staff
  • Improve staff morale, motivation and productivity
  • Encourage proactive employee health
  • Reduce the risk of stress and musculoskeletal related litigation

Simple and surprisingly affordable:

  • Easy to introduce and administer
  • An affordable healthcare benefit and complement to PMI cover
  • A valuable employee benefit
  • Cost may be offset against corporation tax

The Chamber Plan offers 4 levels of cover to choose from, starting from just £6.13 per employee, per month.  So it’s easy to offer cover for all of your staff.

  • No qualifying periods
  • 100% reimbursement on cash benefits, up to set limits
  • No medical required to join
  • Pre-existing medical conditions covered for employees.

Award winning Westfield Health is one of the most successful and secure health insurers in the UK with more than 85 years experience and over a third of a million policyholders enjoying cover with us.

The Chamber plan is only available as an employer-paid plan, with options for voluntary upgrades and partner cover via payroll deduction.

Plus!

The plan now includes expert second medical opinion service Best Doctors and Westfield Rewards, a new retail discount scheme.

Best Doctors will enable employees, their partners and dependent children to get an expert second medical opinion from a world leading medical specialist on the diagnosis of a serious or worrying medical condition they have received from their local medical specialist.

Anyone using the service will be appointed a dedicated case manager who will obtain their relevant medical records and pass them to an appropriate specialist selected from the Best Doctors database of approximately 50,000 doctors in over 40 different medical disciplines. The world leading specialist will review the patient’s case, confirm the diagnosis and recommend the most effective treatment.

Eligible conditions include cancer, heart problems, skin and blood diseases, digestive disorders and many others.

Westfield Rewards provides access to discounts, special offers and cash-back at more than 200 leading high street/online retailers including ASDA, House of Fraser, Marks and Spencer, Boots and B&Q, as well as travel companies such as lastminute.com and utility providers such as E.ON.

Westfield’s existing GP telephone consultation service DoctorLine also includes a webcam consultation service. The online facility will allow policyholders to see and speak to a qualified GP between the hours of 8.30am and 6.30pm UK time, Monday to Friday.

Policyholders will be able to have an online face to face consultation with a GP at a convenient time, avoiding the need to wait days for an appointment and therefore providing peace of mind.
