There is a growing list of UK private health insurers whose policies allow for the full or partial refund of acupuncture treatment fees. If you do have a health plan then, it would be a good idea to see if some or all of the cost of your treatments are covered. I have compiled this short list from the British Acupuncture Council website which was accurate in October 2015. This link takes you to a page that explains the current position though.
Companies listed on the British Acupuncture Council’s website as of October 2015 are:
Aviva Healthcare … Benenden Healthcare Society … Birmingham Hospital Saturday Fund … BUPA … CS Healthcare … Engage Mutual Assurance … Exeter Family Friendly … General and Medical Healthcare … Healthshield … HSF … Medicash … National Friendly … Pru Health … Sovereign Health … Simply Health … Westfield … WHA … WHCA … WPA
Also included are companies underwritten by other companies:
Health-on-Line … Insurety … Saga … Secure Health
