Funding options

Cost of Treatment

The cost of treatment varies according to the type of treatment and programme that is recommended to you. We offer a number of choices in which to pay for your treatment.

Self-Pay

All self-funding patients will be required to pay before commencement of their treatment.

Inpatients are asked to pay a deposit, the value of which will vary with treatment options, but will comprise seven days treatment and assessment fee. Inpatients are then required to pay for each week of treatment in advance.

Day care patients also need to pay for treatment in advance, but they can pay per day or group in advance as their programme might include, for example, one group per week, or three full days per week.

Consultant psychiatrists will invoice patients directly for all inpatient and outpatient appointments

Payment can be made by credit or debit card, cheque or bank transfer. Please note that payment by cheque requires a seven day clearing period. Please note that we do not accept Diners card.

All therapy appointments should be paid for on the day of treatment.

Private Medical Insurance

Capio Nightingale Hospital has direct settlement arrangements with all the major medical insurance companies.

Outpatient Consultant Appointments

Individuals need to bring an authorisation code with them. Unlike some places, we don’t ask individuals to pay for their treatment and then reclaim the fee on their private medical insurance.

Inpatients

In order to be covered by insurance, inpatients require a GP referral letter. Your consultant psychiatrist will subsequently fill in all the necessary forms for the insurance company.

Therapy

In order to be covered by insurance, individuals are required to be seen by a consultant psychiatrist before referral to a therapist can take place.

Corporate

If you are covered by your employer’s private medical insurance scheme, or you wish to be admitted to Capio Nightingale Hospital, referral can be made by your employer’s occupational health doctor.
