Hi,
My brother's health insurance is due for renewal on the 1st April. He is with Laya and is on the Essential Health 300 Benefit plan, and he is single. The renewal price / premium is €1,093.54. I am trying to source similar plans, with the same / similar cover, for less. I have tried to compare plans on the hia.ie website, and I realise that increasing the excess will lower the premium, but I am still having difficulty in trying to select a similar plan to Essential Health for a better price. Any advice / suggestions greatly appreciated.
 

Hi Investor100,

Both Signify and Signify Plus plans, from Laya, offer broadly similar cover to Essential Health 300 at a cheaper price.

However there is a 20% shortfall on Specified Orthopaedic & Ophthalmic Procedures with both these plans. So if replacement hips or knees are issues to be addressed in the near future I would be very careful about moving away from plans that offer full cover for these procedures.

If Orthopaedics are not an issue then there are savings up to €190 to be had by switching to one of these plans

I hope this is helpful.
 
Hi Riomhaire,

Thank you very much for taking the time to research my query and for posting a reply. The information you have provided is very useful. Orthopaedics are not a concern and he is going to switch to the Signify plan.

Thanks again.
