Medicash Smile - the dental plan that helps stop absenteeism biting into your profits
According to a report published by the House of Commons Health Committee in June 2008, the
number of patients seen by NHS dentists has fallen by 900,000 since the government introduced
new reforms in 2006.
This figure is in addition to the estimated 2 million people that the Department of Health
recognised wanted access to dental treatment, but were unable to get before March 2006.
As a result, many individuals now delay seeing a dentist until a problem is serious. For
employers, however, there's even more pain, as growing absenteeism through dental matters
impacts on productivity.
To help ensure your staff get the dental care they need, when they need it, we've created a
cost-effective stand alone dental plan that gives both employers and employees something to
really smile about.
Available in three levels, Medicash Smile covers:
- Routine dental check-ups
- Routine treatment
- Accident and injury
- Emergency and oral cancer treatments
- Cover for both NHS and private treatment
