Travel abroad for your op and reclaim the cost from the NHS
ARE you waiting in pain for an operation or medical diagnosis? It might be worth going abroad, instead, for treatment.
This can work out surprisingly reasonably and will very often even be refunded by the NHS, thanks to the EU law for cross-border healthcare.
You can now usually travel abroad within seven days for any type of medical treatment or operation procedure which you might need.
Those travelling are treated by highly qualified specialists working in a network of 80 internationally approved hospitals across 40 countries, each one with English-speaking staff.
Each undergoes a meticulous selection process. And there are no hospital infections, such as MRSA, to worry about. Patients waiting for a diagnosis of what is causing their pain can receive a full diagnosis and treatment plan within one day, with full tests and results given by a doctor.
The fixed-price package of care includes diagnosis, surgery, rehabilitation and 12-months’ aftercare insurance. It includes a door-to-door service. And you can expect to be treated with empathy and respect.
With 45,000 people treated abroad by this network, and none experiencing attributed post-surgery complications, patients can travel with confidence.
What’s more, you’ll often make considerable cost savings over self-funded private medical treatment in Britain. And, best of all, when traveling abroad to an EU country, you will be able to apply for a refund of your medical costs through the NHS.
