Private Healthcare
 


About this section

There is an alternative to NHS healthcare. You have the option of getting private health treatment for any medical condition - if you are prepared to finance the costs yourself.

You can choose to pay for private healthcare through medical insurance, or pay for it yourself each time you use the service. You can find a private medical practitioner by asking your GP for a referral or for details of an expert in the type of care you need.

Private healthcare is a popular choice if:

  • You wish to avoid a NHS waiting list for a specific treatment
  • The required medical treatment is not available on the NHS
  • You wish to choose a convenient date for a hospital operation
  • You wish to be treated by a consultant of your choice
  • You would like luxury accommodation while undergoing treatment
  • You wish to have a second option on treatment, or a diagnosis you received on the NHS
  • You would like a health screening
