Non NHS Services

Private Work Fees

Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges. Examples include the following:

  • Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements (HGV, PSV etc.)
  • Insurance claim forms
  • Prescriptions for taking medication abroad
  • Private sick notes

The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability. The majority of our fees are listed below. 

Fees

In order to ensure we minimise the amount of private appointments where patients do not attend, or work is undertaken and not paid for, our Policy has been reviewed to fall in line with other surgeries.

 Please note that it is Practice policy to request payment for medical reports and assessments in advance.

 Therefore, please be advised that before a private appointment is made or private forms are completed, payment must be made in advance.
