The Association of Medical Insurance Intermediaries (AMII) has seen an unprecedented increase in membership over the past six months.
Since the launch of the AMII/Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) PMI Exam last April, the Association has welcomed 15 new member firms and another 7 are currently being referenced taking the membership to over 100 firms.
AMII has also recently strengthened its membership offering with an updated AMII website (www.amii.co.uk) and a “Find-A-Broker” search facility for members of the public to find a specialist healthcare intermediary. Other additional membership benefits are also to be announced at its AGM in May.
New members are: Best Private Healthcare, Buckland Harvester Insurance Brokers Ltd; Citymain Healthcare Ltd; Expatriate Insurance Services Ltd; Hightree Financial Services Ltd; J M Glendinning Life & Pensions; NDI Healthcare Ltd; Ponteland Healthcare Solutions; Professional Healthcare Solutions; Regency Health; R Pipe Insurance Consultants; The Health Insurance Specialists; Thomsons Online Benefits; Todd & Cue Ltd; Wellbeing Health Insurance.
Michael Payne, General Secretary of AMII said: “We are delighted to see more health insurance intermediaries looking to demonstrate their professionalism in this specialist sector of the insurance market. They are doing this by taking the AMII/CII IF7 Healthcare Insurance Products exam and joining their profession’s Association.”
“With the recent announcement by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) of a review into the private healthcare market; current Government’s plans for reforming the NHS; and the replacement of the Financial Services Authority (FSA) by the Consumer Protection and Markets Authority (CPMA), we believe it is now more important than ever that the voice of the specialist healthcare intermediary is heard with representation from a strong Association that truly understands the unique requirements of this sector.”
