We are delighted to be able to take patients with insurance. As with everything, insurers have a specific pathway that you need to follow, this may be particular to your insurance policy so please can you check with your insurer:
In general, patients will have seen their GP or specialist then received a referral for an iron infusion, this is what the insurance company normally needs to issue an authorisation code for consultation and/or treatment (see below for details).
So all you need to do is send us your referral letter, Insurance membership and treatment authorisation numbers and we will book you in.
If you do not have a referral,then The Iron Clinic can undertake a normal consultation (for which you have to self pay) and we can then write a relevant letter. We cannot provide details in support of someone for treatment that we have not reviewed. Following a medical review and consultation, you will be able to provide that letter to your insurer for them to review and, if they deem within your policy, authorise treatment.
Authorisation, should be for Professor Toby Richards GMC 4192466 and the infusions to be at The Iron Clinic registered at 101 Harley Street, Marylebone W1G 6AH.

It is vital you confirm with your insurer. This needs to include:
Once you have the insurance authorisation please email this number and your insurance policy number to insurance@theironclinic.co.uk with:
It is the responsibility of the individual to organise the approvals with their insurers – this in accordance with their policy, as such we can only accept insured patients AFTER they have approval from their insurer with the relevant authorisation number.
If you have had a consultation and need approval for the infusion please ensure you send your insurer the consultation letter, as this will have all the information they require.
Please note that the administration and additional paperwork for your insurance process is not something The Iron Clinic are able to manage for you. Additional insurance reports will be charged £50 per report. Similarly, you do book a self pay then want to cancel and change to insurance and ask us to refund then there will be an admin charge of £50 and so refunded £150.
If there is any confusion then we ask that you pay the normal self-pay fees at your visit and then reclaim from your insurer directly.
The customer is liable for and excess or invoices refused by insurers. All accounts should be settled on the day of treatment unless prior arrangements are in place. We accept all major credit cards. Failure to pay will be politely chased. However, accounts that remain in debt after 2 weeks will be passed to Redwood Collections, a late payment fee of £65 be added to your account and you will be liable for all subsequent charges incurred including time for either admin staff (£50p.h.) or consultant staff (£400p.h.).
