health insurance / medical
Some advice - I have a private health care plan that covers me and the kids. It's £9.95 per month for the 4 of us. I have been able to claim the cost of my x ray (£50) and have just put in a claim for health screening for mine and the kids medicals (the claim works out to about £200) although I haven't heard back from them about this yet. I'm not sure how long you have to be paying before you can make a claim but I think it's a relatively short time. If anyone hasn't had their medicals yet it might be worth looking into.
