Paying for treatment
You don't have to have private medical insurance, to benefit from private treatment. There are a number of ways to manage the cost of your care. The choice is yours.
Other options include cash plan and employer assistance schemes:
- Cash plans pay out contributions towards hospital treatment. Details of cash plan schemes can be found on the British Health Care Association (BHCA) website, the trade body for the majority of health cash plans and associated plans.
- Employer assistance schemes are used by employers who recognise that in certain circumstances it is more economical for them to fund private hospital treatment, than to fund your sick pay and pay someone else to do your job, whilst you are awaiting publicly funded hospital treatment.
