Tackling Britain’s productivity gap
Insurers can help boost productivity by keeping people healthier and helping them return to work faster after illness.
Swift diagnosis and treatment are essential, which is why health insurers offer fast-track appointments or direct access to specialists without a GP via self-referral services for treatments like physiotherapy, counselling, and cognitive behavioural therapy.
Wellbeing programmes can also reduce sickness absence, presenteeism, and healthcare costs while improving staff retention.
