Who’s It For?
Private healthcare for the ‘Police Family’: today, tomorrow, and always.
The National Police Healthcare Scheme is specially designed to protect the health of everyone in the ‘Police Family’. This includes serving Police Officers, Student Officers, Police Staff, and their families, as well as Special Constables and members of police-related organisations, including the National Crime Agency (NCA), College of Policing, NPCC, and staff of police charities.
From quick diagnosis to expert medical treatment and exceptional rehabilitation, we help members get the healthcare they need to facilitate a fast recovery. Our member benefits include:
Rapid access to first-class private medical diagnosis and treatment
Free membership of the Police Treatment Centres
Exclusive access to luxury holiday homes
We are not-for-profit, so all subscriptions go back into supporting the scheme
Who can join?
The National Police Healthcare Scheme ensures that those who serve and protect the public receive the healthcare support they need, both during and after their service.
