L&G and Further launch new benefits

The Further Group announces the July 12 launch of a Private Diagnostics benefit offered by Legal & General. In collaboration with AXIS Specialty Europe SE and powered by our digital healthcare platform Trustedoctor, this new benefit combines virtual consultations and in-person testing appointments for referrals to cardiology, oncology and neurosurgery. Private Diagnostics provides L&G insured members with access to top diagnostic centres and specialists throughout the UK, with fast delivery of results that can be easily stored and managed by each individual on their own Trustedoctor dashboard. Legal & General will offer the benefit as an optional add-on to selected personal protection products when purchased via an intermediary.

Concurrently, The Further Group, L&G and AXIS Specialty Europe SE are launching a Fracture Cover benefit. Offering a cash sum payout to provide financial support in the event of injury, L&G Fracture Cover extends to a range of injuries. It insures 20 different fractures, nine different joint dislocations, Achilles tendon ruptures and knee ligament tears and includes injuries caused by sports such as cycling, running and football. This optional add-on benefit will offer easy online management via the Trustedoctor platform.
