A cash plan reimburses some or all of the cost of dental treatment, physiotherapy, complementary therapies, and offers a tax-free cash benefit for each night spent in a hospital as an in-patient. A variety of benefit levels is available, with re-imbursement levels linked to the annual premium paid.
From the employer’s perspective, a cash plan is a low-cost benefit to provide. If it is provided at the employer’s expense it is classed as a benefit in kind, and subject to tax. Cash plans can also be offered on a voluntary purchase basis and are frequently included as part of a flexible benefits programme.
As well as offering advice on all aspects of cash plans we can undertake market reviews where appropriate.
