What’s included in self pay
Initial consultation
The initial consultation guide price covers the cost of your initial appointment with your consultant. The consultation fee is due in full on the day of the appointment. Follow up appointments are also payable unless included as part of a treatment package price.
Diagnostic investigations
The diagnostic investigations guide price covers the approximate cost of any tests you may require to assist the consultant with a diagnosis, such as x-rays and blood tests. If your consultant advises that you need any additional diagnostic investigations, for example a MRI scan, we will advise you of the prices before the test is carried out. Payment for any diagnostic investigations is due in full on the day of the appointment. Any associated costs will be made clear to you before you proceed with any scan or test.
The main treatment guide price
The Main Treatment guide price covers your stay in hospital as long as it is clinically necessary. This guide price includes all pre-operative tests that the Hospital requires to ensure you are fit for surgery, the fees for your consultant and anaesthetist to perform the procedure, and any nursing care, medication and food after. The guide price also covers the cost of any prosthesis and equipment that may be required during your surgery from a standard range supplied by the Hospital. However, if your consultant advises that you need a different prosthesis, or you request a non standard item, then the guide price for your treatment will alter. This will be made clear to you before you go ahead with your treatment and will become the ‘fixed price’. The payment for the main treatment is due in full, five days prior to your admission date.
Multiple procedures
All our prices are quoted for a single procedure as is industry practice; so if you need two procedures, for example cataract operations for both eyes (bilateral) or both knees replaced, our quote will only normally cover the first procedure and we will provide a second quote for the second procedure. There is not a discount for the second procedure. For a number of operations this rule does not apply because there is a single procedure for both left and right, for example correction of ear shape.
Post discharge care
Post discharge Care following your discharge from Hospital is included in your fixed price care package. This price includes a single post-op consultant consultation and physiotherapy visits (up to the number stated), removal of any stitches, change of dressings and any medication you need to take home with you. We will provide you with follow up advice, treatment or care that is clinically required if you experience a complication of your treatment/surgery. Your treating consultant will determine what is clinically required as a direct result of your procedure.
This does not cover situations where the surgery fails to achieve the desired outcome due to known risks or complications of that procedure.
Any problems that occur with a prosthesis or implants will be covered by the manufacturer’s own guarantee.
