Self-funded care at St John of God Berwick Hospital
If you do not have private health insurance we can assist you to access appropriate treatment through our 'self-funded care' option.
Self-funding is a simple process where you can pay for private hospital surgeries or treatments, even if you don't have private health insurance.
By choosing to self-fund your care you will receive comprehensive private hospital care with:
- quick access, avoiding public hospital waiting lists
- your choice of specialist, who cares for you from your initial consultation through to surgery, in hospital and after discharge
- a range of payment options.
