It is very helpful to understand the process that is involved in the treatment of your condition through insurance cover.
The Insurance company will provide patients with a list of Consultant Spine Surgeons in their area that they can choose from to have their first consultation.
Patients normally look at the reviews for each Consultant on the list and make their own choice
They contact Dina (my secretary) to make an appointment with me at their choice of time, date and place.
Patients get a Consultation letter with details of further plans for the next step in the treatment – usually a recommendation for an MRI scan. This letter is most helpful for patients to get further authorisation for an MRI scan / treatment
Dina will coordinate further follow Up appointments with the scan results and take them through all the steps necessary for further treatment. This includes arranging Spine Injections / surgery as recommended.
