Hi Snowyb,
Thanks for the response and apologies for being slow in getting back to you.
I haven't got the details to hand but we were on a bog standard Glohealth plan i.e public bed cover, no day to day expenses.My aim fo rthe last few years was just to hang onto health insurance in any form and upgrade as finances allow. To have an employer pay for it is a huge bonus to my budget.
The new plan is an Aviva plan. I don't have the name but it is a far superior company plan. Its 18 months since I saw the brochure but I remember it was worth approximately 3-4 times per month the cost of my old plan. It covers private hospitals, day to day, some dental etc.
I am considering due paying for the cheapest plan on the market just to keep our waiting period but i feels like such a waste of money considering a free ( outside of tax) plan will shortly be paid for. Any input would be very appreciated.
