Locum Insurance
Having to use a locum can often be a heavy and unplanned expense for a GP, Vet or Consultant. As a scarce resource, a locum can command generous fees and, if you are not properly insured, a lengthy absence could cost your practice dearly.
At Higos we understand how disruptive it can be if you, or a colleague, are unable to work. Our Locum Insurance scheme can help you meet these costs at a difficult time.
Locum Insurance from Higos can assist you with the expense of:
- Protecting you against the cost of paying for a locum, whilst a GP or Vet is off work due to sickness or injury
- Covering you for up to the first year of illness, after which time any permanent health insurance that you have taken out should start to operate or a replacement GP, Vet or Consultant can be sought
- Giving peace of mind that your practice can adequately pay locum salaries promptly
Circumstances in which you can claim include:
- Deferred period on accident claims reimbursed
- Jury Service Cover
- GP Suspension Cover
- Family Illness cover
- Maternity leave single benefit of £5,000
- Adoption and paternity leave covered
- Worldwide Accident and Sickness
We also offer an instalment payment option, conveniently spread over 10 months.
