Cost & Insurance

It varies greatly with when you enrolled and which product you hold. Indemnity insurance differs in coverage by generation and the scheme has changed several times, so we cannot state it definitively. Checking directly with your insurer is most accurate; we issue receipts and itemised statements of treatment costs.
