Are Alexander Technique lessons covered by private health insurance?

Only a few private health insurers (PHI) provide cover for AT lessons.

The following companies are known to reimburse Alexander Technique sessions, mostly on a Consultant’s prescription:

  • BAWA
  • Exeter Friendly Society (on self-referral)
  • HEALTHSHIELD (through company based scheme)
  • Help Musicians UK (Formerly Musicians Benevolent Fund)
  • MediCash
  • The Civil Service Med. Aid Assoc. (on self-referral)

If you have insurance with any private health insurance company it is worth asking if they will cover AT lessons.
