 Health insurance explained

Extras insurance helps you claim benefits towards the cost of everyday health services, like dental check-ups, physiotherapy and optical (glasses or contact lenses). Hospital insurance, on the other hand, helps cover some of the costs when you’re admitted to hospital, including things like doctors’ fees, accommodation and theatre costs.
