Tailored and flexible healthcare
Providing health insurance for your employees helps shape a positive company culture by sending out a clear message that you value their health and wellbeing. Your employees are important to your business, and offering health cover is an effective way to help look after them.
Our small business health insurance provides access to prompt private hospital and specialist treatment, thereby improving employee productivity and reducing staff absenteeism due to ill-health.

Tailor your company's premium
Shared Responsibility is a co-payment feature that allows you to take greater control of your company's premium, whilst ensuring that your employees aren't compromised on benefits.
Unlike a traditional excess, 75% of treatment costs are paid, no matter how small. Employees share the cost of their treatment by contributing 25%. Their contribution is also capped at the chosen level for the Scheme year. Family member(s) may have a different level of Shared Responsibility to the employee.
Levels available
£0 £150 £250 £500 £750 £1000 £1,500 £3,000 £5,000 £6,000
How does Shared Responsibility work?
1
WPA will pay 75% directly to the treatment provider. We will then inform the employee of their share which they will need to pay themself.
2
Their contribution is then taken from their level of Shared Responsibility.
3
Once they reach their level of Shared Responsibility, WPA will pay 100% of any eligible claims subject to their benefit limits.
4
When their Scheme membership is renewed, their level of Shared Responsibility starts again with the new Scheme year, even if the course of treatment started beforehand.
Shared Responsibility is applied per person, per Scheme year and not per claim.
You do not have to pay Shared Responsibility on the following benefits
Structured Counselling, NHS Hospital Cash Benefit, Cash Extras Optional Extra, Out of Pocket Expenses, Hospice Donation, Wigs (Cancer Care benefit), GP Services Optional Extra, Physio Pathways (Therapy Optional Extra), Dental Care Optional Extra - General Dental Treatment and Dental Emergencies.
