How to access general medical admissions with Circle

To access general medical care with Circle Health Group, you can either:

A friend or relative can also call our team on your behalf, and you don’t need a GP referral.

Why might I need to use general medical admissions?

  • Common reasons that people need private general medical care with us include: 
  • You or a loved one may require treatment for an illness
  • You're suffering from multiple conditions and need medical care
  • You are in need of rehabilitation and a hospital stay
  • You require diagnostic investigations to get to the bottom of what's wrong
  • You need a course of antibiotics or other medication and wish to stay in hospital for the duration

How to pay for private medical care

Our general medical service is insurer approved, meaning you should be covered by your private medical insurance policy. Speak to your insurer directly to find out.**

If you don’t have private health insurance, or if you would like treatment that isn’t covered by your policy, we offer a pay-for-yourself option, also known as self-pay.

Self-paying patients will be given a fixed-price package for the treatment you need, so you’ll know up front exactly what charges to expect.*** You can also take advantage of our flexible payment options, which allow you to spread the cost of treatment over a period of up to five years.
