How we measure private health insurance AI visibility
Visibility score
Each question is weighted by how prominently Google surfaces it in its People Also Ask results. The score is the weighted share of questions where an entry appears, averaged across all 7 channels, on a scale of 0 to 100. It is a relative measure for comparing who wins private health insurance answers, not a traffic figure.
Channels and dates
The coloured dots show where an entry appeared: Google organic results, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and YouTube search. All 85 questions were asked in each channel in November 2026, from the UK. AI answers were fetched once per question, so treat small differences as noise.
Questions and totals
The Qs column shows how many of the 85 questions an entry appears for, in any of the 7 channels. Read it next to the visibility score. A high count with a low score means an entry shows up for many questions but wins little of the search demand behind them. Every table shows the top entries alongside the full count for the whole private health insurance industry.
