Joining Simplyhealth

Depending on the type of plan you want, you can join Simplyhealth by heading to either our Health Plans page or our Dental Plans page.

From these pages, you can compare levels of cover and pick the best plan for you. The whole process can be completed online, and you'll be covered as soon as you get the confirmation email.

In most cases, you can claim immediately, but please check the Terms & Conditions for the plan you wish to take out if unsure.

If you choose a Simplyhealth Dental Plan:

If you get a Simplyhealth Dental plan, some benefits have a three-month qualifying period or exclude pre-existing conditions, and these are explained below.

Dental treatment

You can’t claim for treatment received in the three-month qualifying period.

You’re not able to claim for treatment you need within this qualifying period - which you or a dental clinician identified that you needed before you joined your plan. In addition, you cannot claim for part of a course of treatment that began before you joined the policy or during your qualifying period that is not fully completed or paid for.

Dental accident

You can’t claim for treatment that you need as a direct result of an accident that occurred before or within the 3-month qualifying period.

Dental emergency

You can’t claim for any dental appointments or dental treatment required after an emergency visit that you attended within the three-month qualifying period.

An emergency appointment for treatment you knew about/that had been identified before or within the three-month qualifying period will not be covered.

You can pay for your health plan through either Direct Debit or recurring card payments.

In some cases, where it has been agreed, the policyholder’s employer may pay us the premium directly from the policyholder’s salary.

Thank you, it’s great to hear you’re talking to your friends or family about us! For every friend that signs up, you'll get a £10 online shopping voucher (and they'll get one as well).

To refer a friend, you'll need to share a referral link or simply email them. They just need your surname and policy number. Once your friend has joined and paid their first premium, you'll receive an email to redeem your e-code within 14 days.
