What is a Corporate Healthcare Trust?

A Corporate Healthcare Trust is an HMRC-approved alternative way of funding healthcare benefits for employees. With a Healthcare Trust, your money is placed in a fund used to finance eligible treatment. Any remaining balance at the year's end can be used to reduce future employee healthcare costs, making it a popular choice for companies seeking an effective and sustainable way to provide healthcare benefits.

Once your Trust is set up, Healix is on hand to help you as much or as little as you’d like. You’ll be assigned a dedicated account manager to your Trust, who’ll answer any questions and action your requests. They’ll catch up with you every now and then to discuss how your Trust is working, talking through the key points from the monthly, quarterly, or annual data report which we’ll send to you. Our clinical team will also be in touch from time-to-time to discuss emerging trends in your claims, as well as any developments in healthcare and how these will affect your Trust.
