We have a community-rated health insurance market, which means that you won’t pay more for health insurance because of your medical or claims history. You might have some waiting periods if you switch, especially if you increase your cover, but you could save a lot of money!

2025 marks 10 years since the introduction of lifetime community rating (LCR). LCR helps us to support a community-rated market in Ireland, where everyone pays the same amount for a particular plan, and the price doesn’t go up as you age or based on the number of claims you make.
