Im self employed, I have basic VHI cover. I have been out of work for 4 weeks and urgently need a back operation.
I have my MRI scan completed and paid for, I have seen the surgeon and paid him, for the consultation, he booked me in for surgery straight away in a private hospital,and then I found out my VHI covers nothing only a small refund for both expenses so far.
So do I now go to a public hospital and get put on a waiting list for months or try somehow to pay for the surgery myself?
Im in serious pain and need to get it sorted.
