A newbie question about Bupa health insurance?

Are you looking for actual medication etc or just a specialist to look at your GPs notes and come up with a diagnosis and recommend the best form of medication?

Ive highlighted recommend instead of saying pay for, for a reason.

I haven't ever come across a consultant just looking at notes and advising - they usually want to see the patient for themselves.

We have been in the BUPA scheme for years paid for by my Husbands Company.

Hubby had a Hernia operation about 10 years ago and since last Sept 2011 I've had left and right total knee replacements.

The private Hospital was fantastic (more like a Hotel), I chose when I wanted the Op and the Theatre time, the Staff were fantastic......more like one to one nursing.....at outpatient clinics there was no waiting. I have nothing bad at all to say about my experience.....in fact my hubby went to see a Consultant there yesterday and he's booked in for a second Hernia operation on the 25th July.
Must name the Hospital because they were so good........................

Hi emmell, do you know which type of scheme you are on and how much you pay? If necessary, pls pm.

Thank you.
