All income from private patients is directed into improving our hospital facilities. This benefits all of our patients, NHS and private alike.
If you are covered by private medical insurance, we will liaise with your insurance company regarding your bill for the hospital services. Your consultants will invoice you separately for their fees.
All the services provided to private patients are billed. Generally these services are covered by UK based insurance companies. The Trust does not typically deal directly with insurance companies based abroad. If you are insured by an overseas company you will often be expected to self-fund your treatment and claim reimbursement from them at a later date.
It is imperative that all patients check the details in their individual policy as charges that are not met become the patient’s responsibility.
If a patient is self-funded, an estimate of the total cost of care will be given either prior to or on the day of admission. This amount must be paid in full before any treatment can commence. The Trust accepts cash (UK sterling and Euros), travellers cheques, all major credit cards and banker’s drafts.
