PLASA has launched a new healthcare scheme for members that reflects the changing needs of the industry. The Foresight Healthcare Plan, offered through Westfield, represents an excellent risk management tool for employers and an employee benefit that will be highly valued.

The new scheme offers cost-effective solutions to employee health and can be used on its own or in conjunction with private medical insurance. All pre-existing conditions are covered, no medical is required and there is no waiting period.

For as little as £1 a week employees can claim back the cost of dental, optical and therapy treatments (physiotherapy, acupuncture, osteopathy and chiropractic). The plan also covers specialist consultations and provides early access to MRI, CT and PET scanning.

One of the key benefits for members will be the Employee Assistance Programme, which offers telephone or face-to-face counselling for staff on work-related issues or personal problems.
