Having a medically necessary surgery can have additional unscheduled expenses like, for example, the transportation of relatives or the care of children.
This insurance pays a cash benefit from £3,000 to £22,500 depending on the surgery, which can be used for anything that you need.
From nerve surgery including carpal tunnel syndrome to joint replacement or repair surgery. For the details of the types of surgeries covered and the procedure codes, click on the link below.
Whether you go private or NHS you will receive a cash amount whilst you're recovering. If the surgery is with NHS we will pay 75% of the amount listed.
