How much will a business health insurance scheme cost per employee?

Question

We are a small company who are considering implementing a company medical insurance plan and wanted to get an idea of how much it is likely to cost? We have 19 employees and would like to provide them all with cover if possible?

Answer 1

This is a very common question and one that unfortunately does not have a straight forward answer.

Many companies look to business health insurance to provide employees with a means of receiving prompt high quality treatment for acute medical conditions  thus ensuring their employees can receive the care they require when the need it most and get back on their feet and back to work as quickly as possible.

Company health insurance schemes can vary wildly in the level of cover they provide. A very basic plan may only cover treatment for more serious illness where a stay in hospital is required, a mid range plan in addition may provide a limited amount of outpatient treatment where a truly comprehensive plan will cover both inpatient and outpatient treatment in full.
