Significant improvements of your health plan
The health insurance scheme has been improved, which means that a doctor’s referral is no longer required if you need treatment by a chiropractor, reflexologist, acupuncturist or psychologist in connection with stress symptoms, and you can choose your own practitioner.
As something new, you also get access to an anonymous psychological hotline from which you can get advice about stress on all workdays from 8:00 to 20:00 CET. The hotline can help you move on with good advice and clarify whether treatment is needed. A session typically lasts 15-30 minutes.
You will also get access to an anonymous health care hotline if you need help to, for instance, fall asleep, get into shape, quit smoking or if you need advice on how to lose weight. You can get a single conversation or a programme with up to four conversations.
Online health check and on-site health check
From 1 May, all employees can have an online health check and a recommendation for how to change their health-related habits for the better. Afterwards, you can get advice over the phone. In addition, you can have a 30-minute health check, during which your hand strength and lung function as well as your blood sugar and cholesterol levels, if needed, will be measured, and you can have a talk about stress and sleep. Fitness tests can also be booked through our Fitness Wellness centres.
You will get better occupational capacity coverage
The standard cover of your occupational capacity insurance will be increased automatically so that it, in future, amounts to 60 per cent of your salary* if your occupational capacity is reduced by 50 per cent or more. This change does not apply to you if your occupational capacity is already reduced or if your coverage is 60 per cent or more. Furthermore, you will have the possibility of receiving an extra annual payout of up to DKK 179,916 if you are eligible for public job rehabilitation benefit.
Get help and guidance if you get a 2-week or more notification of illness
Your occupational capacity insurance also gives you access to PFA EarlyCare®, where you can get help and guidance from PFA’s social and health care specialists if you get a two-week or more notification of illness. You can get help with clarifying your state of health and get advice on which initiatives can help you return to work sooner.
Please call PFA EarlyCare® at (+45) 70 80 82 42.
