Brokers can now get commission for selling Western Provident Association's (WPA) online private medical policy XS Health.
Those brokers registered with WPA will receive a one-off introductory fee of £100 for policies sold to people aged 29 or over. For people under 29, there is an initial fee of £50, with £50 payable on the first renewal.
Customers who take out XS Health policies pay the first £1,500 of their total annual private healthcare bill. XS Health then covers the rest. Customers aged over 60 have to find the first £3,000 before they can claim.
WPA's revamped Provident Dental Health Insurance is also available through brokers for the first time. The policy covers 75% of routine dental costs up to £250 a year and up to £20,000 for dental injuries.
WPA is also expanding its presence online with the launch of wpa.org.uk, a site on which it hopes to sell all its personal lines products by the end of the year.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
