NHS statutory sick pay does not provide long term cover
In the event of a long term illness it is often the case that sick pay based on a sliding scale from the commencement of NHS employment is simply not sufficient, with the full entitlement not reached until after 5 years of service. Even after this time, the maximum benefit will pay for 12 months of sick leave, 6 months of which will only be at half pay. In the event of a long term illness then you really do need specialist income protection for doctors which provides cover, usually after a defined term of ‘deferment’, which ensures that the benefit is paid at the end of the deferment period. Due to the sliding scale of entitlement of doctor’s sick pay, a fixed term of deferment is not appropriate, which is exactly the reason why our income protection cover is specifically tailored for doctors.A truly unique aspects of the sIncome Protection we offer is that it is available without the need for a face to face meeting.
