Immediate Release: 22.1.26
Trusted provider of employee benefits and insurance services, Personal Group, has formed a new partnership with health-tech innovator DocHQ, bringing together two organisations with a shared mission to improve access to affordable, preventive and people-centred healthcare.
The collaboration reflects a mutual commitment to supporting employers, employees and communities by championing wellbeing, reducing barriers to care, and helping organisations create healthier, more resilient workforces. It also reinforces Personal Group’s long-standing focus on making workplace benefits simple, accessible and impactful, and DocHQ’s dedication to developing high-quality, digitally-enabled health services.
For example, DocHQ’s remote physio service offers appointments with Chartered Physiotherapists in under 48 hours, compared to the current average NHS wait times of 15 weeks*. This significantly decreases the risk of transitioning from acute to chronic conditions which can result in long-term pain, reduced mobility or permanent disability**.
Arianne Riddell, Chief Client Officer at Personal Group, said:
“DocHQ shares our passion for improving employee wellbeing and widening access to support that genuinely makes a difference. Our partnership is rooted in a shared belief that better health outcomes start with removing barriers and empowering people to take control of their wellbeing. We’re excited about what we can achieve together.”
Amit Arora, Chief Commercial Officer at DocHQ, added:
“Personal Group has a strong reputation for putting employees first, and our organisations are closely aligned in how we approach workplace wellbeing. By combining our strengths, we can help employers build healthier, happier workforces reducing musculoskeletal risks.”
