Occupational TherapyWe can facilitate an occupational therapist to visit you at home to assist with your requirements on discharge. There is an additional cost for this.
Ambulance Transfer CostsIn the unlikely event that your condition deteriorates and requires the care of another facility, a transfer will be arranged. In the case of private patients there is a fee charged by Wellington Ambulance Services. If the transfer requires the involvement of the Capital & Coast DHB Medical Retrieval Team (for acutely ill patients) there is also a fee charged by the public hospital. This fee may not be covered by medical insurance. |
