Health & Wellbeing Benefits
Benenden
Employee Healthcare
Staff can
opt into the Benenden Scheme which is an alternative to private healthcare.
They provide private healthcare services on a discretionary basis. They can
provide support when you have to wait over three weeks for diagnostic tests and
over five weeks for treatment – however all cases are looked at on an
individual basis.
Their
services complement those of the NHS and they always ask members to explore
using the NHS first and foremost. They don’t treat some health issues, such as
cancer.
