WPA is a not-for-profit health organisation with a rich history dating back to 1901. Originally founded as a working people's fund nearly 50 years before the NHS, WPA has always been dedicated to making healthcare accessible. Workers contributed a portion of their wages to the fund, providing support during times of ill health.
Today, WPA continues this tradition by offering affordable healthcare through its family policies and corporate schemes.
Unlike some health insurers who dictate which specialists you can see, WPA empowers you to take control of your own health. With a WPA policy, you have the freedom to choose your healthcare provider, as well as where and when you receive care.
In 2022, WPA earned eight national awards across various product and service categories. This recognition reflects the dedication of WPA staff, who embody the organisation's commitment to putting customers at the heart of everything they do. The service customers receive consistently reflects this commitment. WPA is also the only Which? recommended Provider of Private Medical Insurance for 2023 and 2024.
