Following the general election for 2010, the private medical insurance industry and private health insurance companies are planning a response to anticipated changes.

The NHS is likely to undergo a number of changes in its policies come 2010 and private insurers are rising to the challenge in order to top that.

The party conferences will begin shortly and many commentators have highlighted a number of pledges that are being made by the parties. One of the claims made by one of the major parties includes wider access to cancer treatment.

However, a number of senior corporate health insurance and health care advisers cannot see much change in the way things currently are.

In a more specific sense, they said that none of the promises made by these parties could overcome the offerings of the health insurance industry.

The director for a Birmingham based healthcare group, said that the issue of hospital acquired infections was deliberately avoided.

After having promised an additional 45000 rooms in the first term of government, the conservative party were also very quiet on the issue.
