Going abroad for medical treatment, especially surgery, is not something many British people would think of first, when in need for medical care.

Saving Up To 80% On Surgery Abroad

However, after considering waiting times on the NHS and an obvious alternative - private treatment in the UK, most patients would do exactly that –

seek for options to go abroad for getting the medical treatment they need,

allowing themselves to choose their treatment date sooner, and lowering their expenses significantly.




Most British people would choose a European country for their treatment and would cover their travel and medical care costs out of their pocket.


However, not many people know about their right to get their costs reimbursed by the NHS after being treated at any hospital in the EU.



The EU directive says that patients can choose the hospital and country freely within the EU, and the NHS would cover the cost of the treatment as long as the treatment is covered by the NHS and the cost paid abroad does not exceed the amount that the treatment costs in the UK.


Andrius Jonutis, General Deputy Manager at Kardiolita - the leading private general hospital in Lithuania, says:


“When patients from the UK want to come to Kardiolita for a surgery or any other type of medical treatment, we always let them know how to get treatment cost reimbursed by the NHS – and most of them choose to follow our suggested process in order to get the payment reimbursement.

Fact is that 95% of patients do not even know they can do that.”





Even though travel costs would not be reimbursed, having the cost of the surgery alone covered makes a huge difference – in most cases, it saves up to 80% of the total cost for the patient, which is significant savings.
