About Private Surgery Costs
How UK self-pay surgery pricing actually works, and quotes from hospitals near you.
What is on this site
One question, "private hospital price list", answered with a quote form that works on the page with no account, 4 guides on the questions around it, a data table you can cite (the figures and their method), and the sources every figure rests on.
- The three bills: consultant, anaesthetist and hospital fees explained: Why private surgery in the UK usually arrives as three separate invoices, what each one covers, and how a fixed-price package folds them into one. Sourced to PHIN.
- Fixed-price surgery packages: what is included and what is not: What a UK private hospital's fixed-price package normally bundles, the exclusions that catch self-pay patients out, and the five questions PHIN suggests asking first.
- UK private hospital price lists: who publishes them and how to read one: Why some UK private hospital groups publish a national price list and others quote per hospital, what PHIN can and cannot collect, and how to compare two quotes fairly.
- Self-pay or private medical insurance: how the cost conversation differs: Paying for surgery yourself and claiming on insurance fail in different places: package exclusions on one side, excess and shortfall on the other. What to check.
