Over-80s health insurance is private medical cover that can give you faster access to the care you need. It can help pay for consultations, scans, surgery and treatment for eligible conditions, usually in a private hospital.

Looking after your health is one of the best investments you can make. Having the right support in place means you can access care quickly and comfortably for changes in vision, mobility or general wellbeing, helping you stay independent, active, and enjoy more of the things you love.

Many UK insurers don’t set a strict upper age limit for new applicants. That means applying in your eighties is often possible. Acceptance depends on your health and the insurer’s criteria, and while premiums are generally higher than for younger age groups, comparing policies can make a real difference to the price you pay.
