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 (eg holiday cancellation)
- Letters for taking medication abroad
- Fit to fly forms
- Certain travel vaccines
- Private sick notes
- Vaccination certificates
- Fit to do charity event (eg cycling, running, parachute jump)
- Reports for health clubs to certify that patients are fit to exercise
- Adoption medicals
Sometimes we will charge institutions for non-NHS work:
- Medical reports for an insurance company
- Some reports for the DSS/Benefits Agency
- Examinations of local authority employees
- Review of driving license for DVLA
