Does It Make Any Difference if I Buy My Private Medical Insurance Through a Broker?

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) claims that in 75% of cases a broker will be able to secure a cheaper deal than buying direct from the insurance companies.

Thats because a broker should fully research the market for the best deal. There are now over 34 insurance companies providing medical insurance with hundreds of policies and variuos options so there's a lot of scope to save money. Unfortunately with so much to choose from and so much small print, there's also plenty of scope for confusion.

But which broker should you choose.
