    GP funding flexibility

    GP access. Funded your way.

    Every participating employer can give eligible employees and their families access to our negotiated GP services. You decide how consultations are funded.

    1. 1

      Employee-funded GP

      Employees pay the agreed consultation fee when they need a GP appointment.

    2. 2

      Shared GP funding

      The employer contributes towards GP consultations through an agreed funding arrangement.

    3. 3

      Employer-funded GP

      The employer funds an agreed level of GP access for eligible employees and, where included, their families.

    Access and payment are separate. GP consultations are not automatically included in the €500 Access membership. These are three funding arrangements within one ViscaCare scheme, agreed with you, not separate products. GP appointments run 8am to 10pm, 7 days a week, subject to availability.

    One collective scheme

    One scheme. Greater purchasing power. Better healthcare access.

    Large organisations have traditionally enjoyed greater purchasing power when providing healthcare benefits.

    ViscaCare brings smaller businesses together under one collective healthcare access scheme, making meaningful healthcare support more accessible and affordable for their employees and families.

    Every new participating employer strengthens our collective community and our ability to negotiate valuable healthcare services and benefits.

    ViscaCare is a healthcare access scheme, not an insurer, and does not underwrite medical costs.

    For your business

    Reward, retain, recruit

    A benefit your people and their families actually use.

    One plan, one app

    No five suppliers to manage - and no claims process.

    Live in 48 hours

    No minimum term. Add or remove staff in seconds.

    Always confidential

    You never see records, consultations or who uses the EAP.

    Health records sit in each person's encrypted Vault, and only they can access them. Mia offers general guidance, not medical advice or diagnosis; a human Doctor diagnoses and prescribes.

    For employers

    Big-company healthcare benefits. Small-business simplicity.

    Your business doesn't need a large HR department or a complicated benefits budget to provide meaningful healthcare support.

    ViscaCare makes it simple to offer your employees and their families access to healthcare services, wellbeing support and a digital healthcare companion, all through one collective scheme.

    • Affordable annual membership
    • Simple employee onboarding and offboarding
    • Flexible GP funding
    • Employee and family support
    • Multilingual accessibility for international workforces
    • Employer reporting that respects employee medical privacy

    Employers see team-level usage only. Individual medical records, EAP contact and Ask Mia conversations stay private to each employee.

    Health HeroClinical partner

    Business and member figures are cumulative across Gewardz Health and ViscaCare since launch, not current active membership. The 96% figure comes from HealthHero’s survey offered to patients after completed online Doctor appointments. HealthHero serves over 7 million patients across Ireland and the UK; this is provider reach, not the number of survey responses.

    Canavan Byrne
    "I signed our staff and their families up to our ViscaCare cover. I never thought I'd be the first to use it. I went online and had an appointment within 2 hours. The Doctor was very attentive, asked all the pertinent questions and I had my correct diagnosis, all within 10 minutes."
    Paul O’Quigley
    Business Owner, Royal Windows
    "ViscaCare has been a real support for our team. It's helped with retention and people genuinely use it."
    Tomas Brady
    Owner, Bradys Cavan
    "My experience with the online doctor. I went online and made an appointment which we got within a couple of hours. The doctor asked to see the rash my son Senan had come out in, and on performing the glass test the rash didn't disappear. He immediately said to go straight to Temple Street hospital to get checked out for viral meningitis - a referral letter was awaiting us when we got there. I was very happy with the speediness and professionalism of the service."
