Tesco Health Insurance
As well as being the UK ’s largest retailer, Tesco now offer customers a range of health insurance plans, including dental cover. All plans are provided by AXA PPP Healthcare.
There are two levels of cover to choose from: Core Cover and Premium Cover. Both are designed for individuals, couples and families attending an NHS dentist and cover the cost of planned and unplanned dental treatment. The price is fixed regardless of a person’s age or the condition of their teeth and they have the added benefit of being able to stay with their existing dentist.
