Why should you switch to Saga?

  • You could save money on your current policy

  • Saga GP Service – 24/7 access, 365 days a year, from anywhere in the world to a practising GP who can discuss any health concerns, as well as arranging private prescriptions and providing open referrals to a specialist if appropriate

  • Our customers rated our customer service 9 out of 10 on average (based on customers surveyed in 2023)

  • You could earn up to 60% No Claim Discount

  • Our unique 4-week wait option – if the NHS waiting time for your treatment is over 4 weeks we'll arrange for you to be seen immediately in a private hospital - unlike the six weeks offered by many other providers. However, if the NHS can provide the treatment you need locally within 4 weeks, you'll be treated by the NHS. This option is also one of the ways in which you can reduce your price

  • We have over 30 years of experience providing health insurance cover

Existing medical conditions?

It may be possible to keep cover for your pre-existing medical conditions when you switch to Saga Health Insurance, even if you’ve claimed under your existing policy.

This is subject to your medical history and the terms of the new policy.

Company health insurance

Many people want to keep the security of private medical insurance (previously provided by employers) when they change jobs, retire or set up their own business. We have a range of options to suit you and your budget and what’s more, you can personalise your plan to keep the price down or improve your cover.

Medical insurance for the self-employed

Taking time off work because of ill health can be costly as well as inconvenient if you're self-employed or work as a freelancer. That's when having one of Saga's range of health plans really pays, providing you with fast access to medical investigations and treatment plus a number of money-saving options.
