Bespoke healthcare to meet clients' needs

Business healthcare is modular and flexible, enabling you to build bespoke plans for every type of small and medium sized company, and every budget. Standard Life Healthcare's research, and the valuable input from advisers like you, shows this is the plan you and your clients have been waiting for.

As well as new Private Medical Insurance benefits, other key features of the plan include:

  • Travel, Dental and Health Cash Options – available as add-ons or stand-alone modules.
  • Many great ways of keeping costs down.
  • You can adapt clients’ plans to suit changing needs as their businesses develop.
  • Easy to switch your clients currently insured elsewhere to Standard Life Healthcare.
  • Administration and paperwork kept to a minimum.

Business healthcare is supported by Standard Life's track record of award-winning customer service and a promise that when they say “full cover,” that’s exactly what your clients will receive.

To celebrate the launch of their Business healthcare plan, Standard Life Healthcare are pleased to offer an enhanced promotional rate of 15% initial / expansion commission until the end of 2007.

Additionally initial commission will now be paid for mid-term joiners automatically and Standard Life Healthcare will pay a generous 10% commission for renewals.

From January 2008 standard commission will be 10% initial and 10% for renewals. But you can earn a lot higher than this. Every six months Standard Life Healthcare will look at your average monthly sales of business healthcare over that period. These will determine your initial commission rate for the next six months - which could be as high as 20%.

What’s more, the first period Standard Life Healthcare will look at is your business healthcare sales from launch to the end of 2007, so you could start earning 20% initial commission right from the start of 2008! See the table below for details.

Commission Level Monthly average annual premium income (net of tax) over the preceding six months Initial/Expansion Commission rate applicable from 1 January 2008. Renewal Commission rate
Standard Under £20,000 10% 10%
Enhanced Between £20,001 and £39,999 15% 10%
Higher Enhanced Over £40,000 20% 10%

Commission rates quoted above relate to sales of business healthcare only.
