Insured Patients
Please ensure that you check with you insurance company before your visit to outpatients to check:
- Whether there is an excess on your policy as you will be liable to pay this
- Whether there is a restriction to claims that result in inpatient care
- Whether there is a monetary limit for outpatient treatment
Please
be sure to bring all of your insurance details with you when you attend
for your appointment, including any pre-authorisation or claim
reference details.
If you cannot provide full insurance
details or if your insurance does not cover the full cost of your
outpatient treatment, we will ask you to pay any hospital charges on
the day of your visit.
When you attend The Spencer Wing
for an out-patient appointment, your consultant will send you a bill
for the consultation fee and the hospital will charge you separately
for any tests and treatment carried out.
