Private Work Fees
Insurance Medicals
You may be asked by various commercial organisations e.g. insurance companies, or by government bodies, e.g. driving authorities, to have a medical examination. This is not a part of the GP’s statutory duties & for this work either you or the requesting organisation will be charged accordingly.
Charges for Non-NHS Services
In addition to the above we charge for various other items including letters supporting appeals, private sick notes, and some travel vaccinations. The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability for private medical examinations.

Payment
We accept card payments for any non-NHS service. Please note this is our preferred method of receiving payment, cash and cheque payments will only be accepted if patients do not have access to their own card.
Time Frame
Our priority is to care for our patients and therefore non-NHS work does not take priority over our NHS work. Please be aware all non-NHS work has an up to thirty day turnaround, this includes any appointments in which you may require.
Occupational Health, including Hepatitis B vaccinations
Stennack Surgery does not provide an occupational health service as part of our NHS responsibility nor can we provide this service to you even if it is funded. Under Health & Safety Regulations, your employer has a duty to provide a safe working environment and, therefore, appropriate health advice for those at risk of infection with hepatitis B. We advise you to contact your employer who will be able to make arrangements with an occupational health provider of any immunisation which you may require following an appropriate assessment of the risk to which you are exposed.
