What our members say

"Have come for Phlebotomy training today, an extension of my original training - I learnt more in the first hour than I did in my NHS training. Highly recommended.

"I just want to say a big thank you to our trainer who delivered an amazing phlebotomy course over the past couple of days. Not only have we learnt a valuable skill, the course and it’s content delivery was top notch and it was also a lot of fun! Great to meet everyone too!"

Private Medical insurance
The Phlebotomy Association is recognised by the following Private Health Insurers
Before agreeing on a course of treatment with your Phlebotomist it is important that you check with your Private Health Insurer to confirm that your treatment will be covered by your policy as this information is subject to changes outside of our control.
Frequently Asked Questions
PA membership does not automatically include insurance but does have a specifically designed and heavily discounted insurance scheme for those members requiring it. And although we have developed a fantastic scheme, some practitioners may have found other policies that are better suited to their needs.
Joining the Association does not automatically give you insurance. Should you require insurance, you can use our PA affinity scheme policy and access the discounts available for PA members.
The following is from our insurance provider Balens regarding this policy:
“We can hold cover from the date we receive the completed application form [and] subject to suitable qualifications and favourable answers to the declaration questions. When it comes to contacting the client for payment and issuing documents, our standard turnaround time is 48 hours;
however, we may be slightly outside that due to the current situation with Covid-19.”
