The No1 Solution for Recovering Private Medical Fees

Recovering Private Medical Fees

Whilst the NHS still dominates most of the UK, around 12% of the population is still covered by private health insurance.

Common types of private healthcare include dental treatment, physiotherapy, diagnostics, surgery and consultations.

The cost of treatment may vary depending on the type of personal injury claims that need to be treated.

Several reasons dictate why someone may use private healthcare, and in most cases, present AND future treatment will be required.

The more that this is used, the more the cost of private medical fees goes up, which has to be monitored.

For private consultants, their medical fees may be paid on the day of treatment in full, or a monthly basis.

Sadly, there are times when a patient fails to pay for private medical treatment, leaving the consultant out of pocket.

Several ways extra charges can be incurred may make it harder for the patient to pay, including:

• An insurance shortfall from the cover the patient had for the private treatment.
• Consultancy fees that have not been paid.
• Exclusions to insurance for a particular treatment in addition to the policy excess.
• Payment of medical procedures such as private dental fees.

Medical consultants across the UK need a dedicated solution for recovering private medical fees.

The purpose of a medical professional is to help those that are sick, so why should they be left unpaid?

For those recovering private medical fees, this is the most beneficial solution in terms of both cost and effectiveness.

Why Use a Debt Collection Agency for Recovering Private Medical Fees?

If you have not been paid, it is important to recover the cost of treatment as soon as possible.

There are many options available for recovering private medical fees, all with different levels of success and costs.

You may try and recover the money alone by contacting the debtor and making them aware of the overdue fees.

Using a solicitor maybe your favoured choice, although this can be an expensive course of action.

A professional debt collection agency will greatly improve your experience when recovering private medical fees.

This is the most beneficial solution for any consultant needing to claim for the cost of treatment.

Ethical and Effective Service

Throughout history, using a debt collection agency to recover money has had a stigma attached to it. The perception was that they can be heavy-handed and, as such, should be used as a last resort.

In the modern world, this is far from the truth, as agencies are seen as a successful and professional service.

Federal Management offers an ethical debt recovery service which considers the feelings of both parties.

Specialist agents can determine the cause and nature of why your medical fees have not been paid. As such, they will take the most appropriate actions to ensure the money is recovered with minimum stress.

Mediation

The last thing someone needs when leaving the hospital is to be chased for payment of the treatment. Whilst this is true, they should have already been made aware that the payment was outstanding.

A professional debt collection agency can play the role of mediation between the debtor and the patient.

Having a point of contact to mediate the process can be beneficial, considering this is a very difficult situation for all.

During the process of recovering private medical fees, agencies keep everyone updated about activities relating to the payment of the debt.
