Overview

Healix Health isn't your typical health insurance provider. It's a self-funded healthcare trust that gives organisations control over employee healthcare. Think of it as the difference between renting (traditional insurance where your premiums disappear into insurer profits) versus building equity (a healthcare trust where surplus funds stay with you). Instead of rigid insurance packages with frustrating gaps and overlaps, Healix creates bespoke healthcare arrangements tailored precisely to your workforce's needs – then backs them with the highest ratio of qualified nurses to claims assessors in the UK market.

Pros
Self-funded trust model gives you financial control
Bespoke benefit design
Nurse-led claims
Cons
Financial risk sits with your organisation (though mitigated)
In a self-funded model, your organisation bears claims risk. While Healix provides stop-loss protection limiting exposure to catastrophic claims, and their clinical management reduces inappropriate claims, there's inherently more financial variability than fixed-premium insurance.
Healthcare trust concept requires education and buy-in

Key Features & Benefits

Self-Funded Healthcare Trust Model

What It Does

Instead of paying premiums to insurers, you fund your own healthcare trust. Healix administers it, ensuring compliance and providing expertise, but you control the fund. Surplus funds (money not spent on claims) stay in your trust, supporting future healthcare needs or enabling benefit enhancements.

Why It Matters

With Healix's trust model, prudent healthcare management and good claims experience translate to financial benefits for your company.

Bespoke Benefit Design

What It Does

Healix's A-Z of benefits catalogue offers comprehensive healthcare options from basic consultations to complex procedures.

Why It Matters

Healix's bespoke approach means a tech startup can prioritise mental health and physiotherapy, while a manufacturing firm emphasises musculoskeletal care. It's healthcare designed around actual needs, not insurer product constraints.

My Healix Digital Platform & App

What It Does

Centralised digital hub where employees access all healthcare and wellbeing services.

Why It Matters

Employees can submit claims in minutes rather than completing paper forms. HR teams get real-time visibility into utilisation.
