If you are unable to access the treatment your doctor wishes to prescribe by any of the means detailed above you may wish to consider ‘co-payment’ or ‘topping up’.

Co-payment involves paying for a treatment and any costs related to giving that treatment whilst still continuing with your NHS treatment you would otherwise receive. If this is something you wish to consider you should discuss this option in detail with your clinician.

Please do contact us for further assistance if you have been recommended a treatment that you are told is not routinely available via the NHS.
