What the company says
"Do you resent the idea of paying premiums for health insurance and getting nothing back?"
"Do you want choice and control over your health insurance cover for the rest of your life?"
"With other healthcare policies you lose all your payments whether you claim or not. But with the Healthcare Deposit Account from National Deposit half of each monthly premium goes into your own personal deposit account – and the money in your account is always yours.
Some of the other key benefits you can expect from the scheme include:
- Your choice of monthly premium, from as little as £20 a month.
- Fixed monthly premiums for life – you'll just pay more towards a claim from your personal deposit account as you get older.
- Comprehensive medical cover including private consultations, surgery, recognised alternative therapies, cancer and hearttreatment.
- Dental and optical cover.
- An unrestricted choice of private hospitals and treatment locations, as well as the option to use the NHS"

Basis of cover
- Half goes towards the cost of running the scheme whilst the other half goes into your own personal deposit account
- Your monthly premiums are fixed for life, so they’ll never go up because you’ve made a claim or reached a certain age
- Cover is comprehensive and includes access to any registered private hospital, every NHS private patient unit and all recognised UK consultants and specialists
- Your personal deposit account is what makes this healthcare cover special. It allows you to build up your cover at your own pace. When you need to make a claim, a set percentage will be paid from your personal deposit account and National Deposit will always pay the majority share.
- You can boost your personal deposit account balance at any time – and the more you pay in, the more you can claim.
- You can also make cash withdrawals from your deposit account if you wish. The money in your personal deposit account is yours, so if you don’t need to claim, you’re free to use it for something else
- As an option for the first five years, while you’re building your balance, you can topup your medical cover by paying an extra £5 a month. This will give you access to an extra £20,000 of medical benefit
- After five years you will qualify for loyalty rewards based on the size of your account balance. This means that even more of your monthly premium will go into your personal deposit account.
