Pick a plan that’s right for you

All of our company health insurance plans include benefits from AXA Health, ranging from nurse helplines and physiotherapy, to private specialist diagnosis, plus private hospital treatment on our highest level. With no medical questions and a simple exclusion of pre-existing conditions in the three years before cover starts, it's quick and easy to apply.

24/7 GP access

If you’re not feeling 100% then you can book your GP consultation by calling the service at any time.

This service is provided by the UK’s leading GP consultation service – HealthHero – which is easily accessed using our Equipsme App or through the members section of our website.

Both levels of our self-employed plans include ‘Open Referral’, which means if the GP thinks you may need a referral onto a specialist you simply contact AXA Health who will confirm if covered and help organise the referral.

On all of the levels of Equipsme, within the GP Service, you can pay for a private prescription to be delivered to your home, work or local pharmacy.

Physiotherapy sessions

We offer Physiotherapy sessions across all levels of Equipsme. You access them through AXA Health who help arrange and pay for covered sessions and can be contacted whether or not you have a GP referral.

Physio cover starts with a telephone assessment by the in-house Physio team to help assess you and suggest any easy self help solutions.

If you then need to see a physiotherapist, the team can book this, with up to 5 annual Physio sessions on Solo and up to 8 sessions on Solo Plus.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis cover is offered on Solo and Solo Plus from Equipsme. This includes specialist consultations, diagnostic tests, MRI and CT scans, and it includes cover up until Cancer is diagnosed. All bills that are covered are paid directly by AXA Health and there is no excess to pay on Solo and a small excess of £150 on Solo Plus.

Specialist diagnosis consultations and tests are accessed following a GP consultation and referral and then by contacting AXA Health who will check that your condition is covered and then organise your referral onto one of their approved Specialists.

Tests & Scans

Hospital Treatment

Solo Plus includes Hospital Treatment. This includes cover for specialists, surgeons, hospital room, dressings and drugs. You have access to the AXA Health approved network of hospitals and specialists and they will settle bills that are covered directly.

The Plan does not cover the treatment of Cancer but does include cover up until Cancer is diagnosed. There is a small excess of £150 to pay.

Health checks

Across all levels of Equipsme we offer Health Checks through our service partner Thriva. Members get an online health check across both Solo and Solo Plus and they get an annual blood test for:
• Vitamin D
• Cholesterol
• Diabetes

We also encourage members to monitor their health and to extend their health checks with a discount of 20% on further Thriva purchases.

Prescription Delivery

Stress support

Stress support cover is provided on both levels of our self-employed plans. Our Stress Support provider is Health Assured – a leading UK provider of telephone and face to face counselling support.

It includes a confidential telephone service 24/7 for a range of work related, personal and lifestyle matters, plus up to 8 counselling sessions by phone, online or face-to-face. Telephone/online support is also available for matters such as financial, legal, consumer, family care and housing.

24/7 Nurse helpline

All levels of the Plan include a private nurse helpline and telephone support for any health related queries and if you have a heart or cancer condition. Both levels also include a Second Opinion service, if you’re not getting the answers you need from your current private specialist.

These are provided by AXA Health and offer 24/7 support to Equipsme members.

"Equipsme is attractive because it is extremely good value for money...it enables us to create a package which really does stand head and shoulders above others."

Jonathan Fielding, Falmouth Boat Co

"Equipsme is a complete contrast to the traditional model and is a straightforward solution with competitive prices."

Richard Pipe, Fire Security

"Everyone was so pleased and surprised to get the health insurance plan. It makes you feel good to be valued and providing this benefit is an easy way to do that..."

James Geere, Space Kitchens and Bathrooms

"What we liked about Equipsme was that it offered people not just peace of mind but real, practical benefits."

Martin Warner, Director of Talent at Smart Pension

"What I liked about it was that it wasn’t just insurance that sat in the background quietly hoping never to be used. There were immediate benefits."

Stuart Wardle, Recover Physiotherapy

"I literally did a double-take when I looked at Equipsme’s fees and services. It’s not only incredibly affordable, but it’s also really simple to understand and really easy to use - with a whole host of instant, practical benefits."

David de Wet, Ecovate
