Abstract

Overview

Introduction

This brief provides a detailed study of the UK healthcare cash plan market, with information on market size and profitability, as well as developments in policy numbers. In addition, the size of the market is forecast out to 2012 under three scenarios reflecting different views on future conditions.

Scope

  • Data on market size, policyholder numbers of the UK healthcare cash plan market
  • Information on product penetration and consumer attitudes to cash plans
  • Forecasts of premium income until 2012 under three different scenarios, based on primary research and Datamonitor' s own models

No company has been as active as the Simplyhealth group in consolidating the books of smaller players to achieve its present dominance in the healthcare cash plan market. The HSA Group, which later rebranded to become Simplyhealth, has consistently bought up smaller rivals in the market in order to expand cash plan numbers and regional coverage.
