Before you pay

  • Check whether your employer offers private medical insurance or a cash plan.
  • Ask for a fixed-price, all-inclusive quote in writing, including what happens if you need more care.
  • A private consultation does not stop you using the NHS afterwards, and a private consultant can refer you back.
