April Medibroker scooped first place in the 2012 Health Insurance awards held at the Grosvenor House, Park Lane, London last week, winning the category of Best Individual International Private Medical Insurance Intermediary.

The Health Insurance awards are generally regarded as the industry Blue Riband standard and this is now the fourth time April Medibroker has won the category in the last ten years.
