Description
The only thing worse and more frustrating for a parent than having a sick or injured child is having a sick or injured child and having to wait for treatment.
First Healthcare gives you the reassurance they'll be given crucial, expert treatment when they need it. And unlike most other policies, is designed specifically for your children.
If your child is referred to a specialist by a GP they can be seen privately and won't have to join an NHS waiting list - this includes any diagnostic tests.
If your child requires further treatment such as an operation, which is not available on the NHS within six weeks, your child will be treated privately. This includes in-patient, day-patient and any outpatient treatment, either in a private hospital or as a private patient in an NHS hospital.
