Self-Pay - Treatment Overseas
As the world becomes a smaller place, more and more of us are looking overseas for potential opportunities, none more so than the pursuance of medical treatments at reduced costs.

In the UK, we enjoy a very high standard of healthcare overall, often isolated cases are blown up to make news worthy stories. However a by-product of having this excellent service is that it can sometimes cost a lot.

Therefore, if you are looking to self fund treatments, and cost is an issue, then you may have considered having your treatment overseas.

Treatment overseas can look very attractive compared to that in the UK with some countries offering comparable procedures, to the same standards of the UK, but for a fraction of the cost. Therefore, it becomes a valid argument to both receive treatment and enjoy a welcome break at no additional cost… a kind of recovery element.

 Consider the Pro's
 Consider the Con's
  • Immediate Cost saving …
  • Recovery break included…
  • Conducive to quick recovery…
  • Friendly and helpful staff…
  • What happens if something goes wrong?
  • Not covered through normal travel insurance?
  • Cost implications if treatment is not successful..
  • Not likely to be covered under a reciprocal agreements between countries.



 

However, you should first be aware of all the potential problems as well as the advantages of having your treatment overseas.

A common mistake people make when considering treatment overseas is their travel insurance. The average policy will make specific exclusions toward to travelling with the intention of receiving treatment, and potentially void the policy as a result.

We can assist you with the correct type of policy if required, dependant upon where you are going and what type of treatment you are seeking… ask your policy adviser for details.
