Medical Insurance Schemes
Bupa Cromwell Hospital has arrangements with most
insurers. In most cases, bills for inpatient, day case and
radiotherapy treatment can be settled directly with the insurer.
However, some insurance policies do restrict the hospitals that can
be used for inpatients or daycase treatment.
Outpatient visits are normally unrestricted but may be subject
to an annual benefit limit.
We recommend that all insured patients confirm their
eligibility for treatment with their insurer prior to visiting the
Hospital.
The Cromwell Breast Care Unit,
Specialist Bowel Cancer Unit, MRI
Unit and Critical Care facilities are all
Bupa approved.
