Business Wire, April 24, 2007

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c54792) has announced the addition of Health Cash Insurance 2007 to their offering.

The health cash insurance market is expanding in size and globally.

New providers- new concepts-new countries.

Existing providers are looking to update and innovate

Health cash is mainly a UK industry, and this makes up the bulk of this report. International health cash insurance is growing in Ireland and Gibraltar. In future years the author will add other countries to this annual report.

Cover has changed dramatically since the days of hospital cash. Alternative medicine, health screening, help-lines and health discounts are common. But products change fast - often updated annually.
