VHI has announced that it is to reduce the prices on several of its plans.
The health insurance company confirmed today that One Plan Starter, One Plan Starter Day to Day, One Plan 500, One Plan 250, One Plan 150, First Plan Level 1 and Family Plan Level 1 will see reductions of up to three per cent, while other plans will have their prices frozen.
According to the Irish Times, the company said that it had made savings in its operations and was passing on the reductions to its customers.
“This cost containment programme has focussed on a number of key areas such as reduced rates for consultants and hospitals, increased use of clinical indicators and clinical audit and the continued movement of treatment to the most cost-efficient setting. All of these factors are facilitating today’s price decrease,” said VHI chief executive John O’Dwyer.
VHI also plans to put in place a half price children’s offer on four plans including One Plan Family, Parents And Kids Excess Plan, Teachers’ Plan Select and Nurses’ Plan Select for customers joining or renewing these plans from 1st March 2015 until 30th April 2015.
