The Ulster Independent Clinic: Fixed Price Surgery
 

Fixed Price Surgery

 
Fixed Price Surgery for self paying patients guarantees the cost of treatment and gives peace of mind. Fixed Price Surgery is a scheme specially designed for those patients who wish to enjoy the benefits of treatment in the Clinic and who pay their own bill.

Fixed Price Surgery is:
A scheme designed for patients who are not covered by private medical insurance
An arrangement which gives you a guaranteed fixed charge for a range of surgical procedures. The price includes your Surgeon’s and Anaesthetist’s fees as well as all Clinic treatment during your stay.
Also included is one post operative consultation if required.
A guarantee that you will not be given any additional bills even if you need to spend up to six weeks in the Clinic or if complications arise from the surgical procedure.
A quality scheme, providing the same treatment and services provided for all other patients.

Fixed Price Surgery is not:
An out-patient scheme. Any out-patient consultations or investigations before your surgical admission to the Clinic are not included in this scheme.
A discounted scheme. The cost is based on average charges for each procedure, plus a small charge to cover the possibility of a stay longer than the normal limit.
A deferred payment scheme. Payment is required in full before admission.
Fully inclusive. You will be invoiced on discharge for miscellaneous extras, such as telephone calls you make from your room.

How does Fixed Price Surgery work?
When you know you need surgery, you may ask your Consultant surgeon if you can be admitted to the Clinic under his care, for Fixed Price Surgery.
If the surgical procedure you require is listed in our schedule and your Consultant is a member of the Clinic medical staff he/she will arrange your admission.
Payment must be made in full by cheque/banker’s draft/cash, one week prior to admission.

What are the Conditions?
The Clinic guarantees that no additional fees or charges will be incurred by any patient who may require and extended stay in Clinic of up to six weeks. This applies only in the case of complication arising from the original medical condition leading to admission.
Should complication arise which are not attributable to the original condition the Clinic reserves the right to make appropriate charges at normal rates.
The Clinic also reserves the right to refuse admission under a fixed price scheme if any pre-operative conditions are known to exist which may give rise to complications.
The guarantee set out above does not apply once the patient has been discharged from Clinic unless further admission id required on an emergency basis and is directly attributable to the fixed price surgery operation.
