Skip the NHS Queue in 2026 — Protect Your Family Today!
CignpostMe is an insurance policy that lets you skip the NHS waiting queue for diagnostic tests and scans. It allows you to go Private, without the big bills.
When we don’t feel well, we want to know what’s going on and fast so we can start to recover. Sometimes it’s obvious - that co-worker who sneezed over everyone in the team meeting, that past-it’s-best takeaway leftovers you ate for dinner, but sometimes your symptoms need a professional to investigate.Currently there are 1.6 million people waiting for a diagnostic test or scan on the NHS, and people are waiting over 6 weeks for those tests and scans. We don’t want to wait that long, and neither should you. Let CignpostMe help you when you need it most.
Skip the queue, avoid the big bills, and still get your answers quickly.
CignpostMe policies include:
- Fast access to diagnostic tests and scans
- Access to 24/7 online on demand doctors
- Access to our health and wellness companion app - MyCignpost
Skip the queue, avoid the big bills, and still get your answers quickly.
Waiting in queues is frustrating, it’s more frustrating when you are waiting for appointments relating to your health. Give yourself the option to jump the queue, get a CignpostMe policy.

How it works
Stories Based on Real Customer Experience
Francis' story
Meet Francis, 71 from Glasgow. Until recently, Francis had a PMI policy, but with costs rising he found he was struggling to pay his premiums and decided to cancel the policy.
Then he found CignpostMe, for a fraction of the cost of his PMI policy, he can get quick diagnostic tests done through private healthcare, so if symptoms arise, he knows he can get tested just as quickly as he could with his PMI policy.
Mark's story
Mark, 39 from Paisley, travels the country for work and relies on his company’s Private Medical Insurance. But he wanted a health and wellbeing service he could access anytime, anywhere—plus tools to set goals, track progress, and get quick support from health professionals.
Then he found CignpostMe. With rapid diagnostic tests, app-based health assessments, and personalised insights, Mark gets the guidance he needs without using his PMI. Now, he has real peace of mind.
Sarah's story
Sarah, 51 from Portsmouth, is like a lot of us. She often struggled to get GP appointments for non-urgent concerns. While PMI appealed to her, it was slightly out of her budget.
Then she found CignpostMe. She can get private diagnostic tests, access online doctors within minutes, and follow up on treatment through the NHS if needed. Now, she has peace of mind.
