Good morning,
I currently work for the Civil Service in an Executive Officer grade role with the Department of Agriculture, Food & the Marine but I am due to take up new employment on June 14th with a local authority (County Council) in a Staff Officer grade role. Therefore I will remain in public service and intend to retain my existing membership with the Forsa trade union.
I am 32 years old and relocated to the Republic of Ireland from Northern Ireland 6 months ago. I am interested in learning more about Health Insurance options for public sector employees. Living in Northern Ireland meant I was registered with the NHS in the UK, so never had to worry about paying for healthcare. Therefore I am not accustomed to the idea of having to pay for private health insurance. I am currently living with my girlfriend in her parent's home, and their family are all with Laya.
I have heard about the likes of Cornmarket and Lyons so I'm confused by who actually offers advice to public sector employees on health insurance. Can you someone please point me in the right direction? There are simply far too many health insurance plans to choose from, so I need help as it is all very confusing for someone who has never needed to even consider the idea of health insurance before. But I can see that the waiting lists for public healthcare are extremely long here in the South, so I might have no choice other than to consider private health insurance.
