Bupa has launched its enhanced dental plan which will be available from April.
The product will provide up to £15,000 for oral cancer and will also feature new and increased benefits including full refund for NHS treatment, routine treatment overseas, anaesthetist benefit and up to £1,000 a year for hospital stays. Also included is reimbursement for dental examinations, scale and polish as well as orthodontic care for child dependants.
The policy will be available in five budget levels, does not require pre-enrolment dental checks or underwriting and can be paid for by employers, or offered as an employees -paid voluntary benefit.
Ivan Kennedy, head of Bupa Dental, said: “We have listened to employers, employees and intermediaries and designed our plan to include a range of benefits they say they value the most. Dental insurance is a highly-valued employee benefit because it is one that most employees can use at least twice a year.”
