The Health Insurance Shop was recognised as a cutting-edge innovation in health insurance comparison when the platform’s founder, Hennelly Finance was announced winner of the Innovation of the Year award in the Irish Life Health Broker Awards for 2022.

Hennelly Finance Managing Director Ruth Hennelly said the team was thrilled their innovation had been given prestigious national recognition in Irish Life Health’s annual awards program.
