About Switch Health Insurance
Switch Health Insurance is a UK online resource built around a single focused purpose: helping consumers and small businesses compare and switch private medical insurance.
What we do
We provide guides, tools and a streamlined comparison form designed specifically for switching UK private medical insurance. When you submit the form, your details are passed to our recommended FCA-regulated partners, who prepare a side-by-side comparison from leading UK insurers and arrange any new policy directly with you.
Everything on this site is designed around switching. We do not cover unrelated insurance products — no motor, no home, no pet, no life. If you want to compare or switch UK private medical insurance, this is the resource. If you want anything else, there are better places to look.
What we are not
We are not an insurer. We do not underwrite policies, accept claims, or run a customer-service operation for any insurer. We do not employ advisers and we do not provide regulated financial advice. We are an introducer — our role ends at putting you in touch with our recommended partners.
Our partners
Our recommended partners are FCA-regulated firms that specialise in UK private medical insurance. They review the wider UK market, prepare your comparison, and — if you decide to proceed — arrange your new policy directly with you. Any advice you receive is given by our partners' advisers, not by us.
Where you decide to take out a policy through one of our partners, the partner may pay us a commercial fee for the introduction. This never increases the premium you pay; the price you see is the price the insurer would charge through that partner.
How we keep things simple
- One short form. No essay questions, no lengthy phone calls. The comparison form takes about 60 seconds.
- Email-first comparison. Your comparison is returned by email so you can review it in your own time.
- No obligation. Submitting the form does not commit you to anything. Many people use it to benchmark before deciding whether to switch.
- Existing conditions protected. Where you have existing cover, our partners check whether CPME applies before any switch — so cover for existing conditions transfers across.
