The mechanics of putting two adults on a single private medical plan.
Joint plans are open to married couples, civil partners and cohabiting partners living at the same UK address in England, Scotland or Wales. Both adults must usually be aged 25 to 90 and registered with a UK GP to be accepted by leading insurers.
Even on a joint plan each partner is underwritten as an individual, so personal medical history shapes what each person is covered for. One policy document is issued, but exclusions and loadings are recorded separately for each life assured.
A joint policy combines both partners onto one renewal date with a single premium and one set of paperwork. Cover levels, excess and hospital list options are chosen jointly, making the plan simpler to compare, track and renew each year.
