COVID-19 information for Frank members

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation continues to unfold, we want to reassure you that the team at Frank is here to support you. We know times aren’t so simple right now, but your health and wellbeing is a top priority for us.

We’ll keep this page updated with new information as the situation evolves.

COVID-19 and your health cover

Does my health insurance policy cover coronavirus?

  • Frank has introduced new support measures, which mean existing members with hospital cover will be covered for all COVID-19 related hospital treatments as a private patient, as long as you have served your initial two-month waiting periods.
  • This COVID-19 coverage was provided initially until the end of September 2020 and has been since reviewed and extended to 30 September 2022.
  • We have added wording to hospital eligibility checks to confirm coverage for all of our members with hospital cover so the hospitals are aware that you will be covered.

What if I have a pre-booked hospital admission or ongoing hospital treatment?

  • If you have a pre-booked hospital admission or ongoing hospital treatment, we would recommend to regularly check in with your doctor and hospital before your admission for the most up-to-date information.
