How do business health plans work?

1
Step one

The company or employee pays a regular premium

Each month, your company or your employees contribute a regular amount to the business health plan. This payment might be deducted from their salary, funded by the company or it could be a contribution you make as the employer with additional employee top-ups. This premium is what secures their access to their benefits.

2
Step two

Employees visit their dentist, physiotherapist, optometrist and more

When your employees need routine healthcare services like a dental check-up, new glasses from the optician, or even treatment from a physiotherapist or chiropractor, they simply visit their preferred practitioner. They pay for the service directly at the time of their appointment, just as they normally would.

3
Step three

Employees easily submit their claims

After their appointment and once they’ve paid, the employee submits the receipt to us via the online claims portal.

4
Step four

Employees receive reimbursement

We process the claim and reimburse 100% of the cost (up to the cash limit) directly to the employee.

Business health cash plans vs company health insurance

There is a difference between a company health plan and company health insurance.

A business health cash plan helps employees claim cashback on their everyday health costs such as dental, optical and physiotherapy costs. It is typically seen as affordable employee health benefits - a low-cost preventative perk for employees. Company health insurance is PMI (Private Medical Insurance) which covers unexpected and serious medical events. This can include surgeries, hospital stays and cancer care. PMI is typically seen as comprehensive clinical protection and comes with a much higher cost to the employer.
