Cross-Border Health FAQs

"Please do not remain in pain. If it’s not for yourself, maybe it's a relative or friend, maybe a neighbour you see struggling every day, whoever it may be, please tell them about the Cross Border Health Treatment. Yes, you need the money up front, but the wonderful thing about this EU Directive is that HSE will reimburse most of the monies, leaving you with only the shortfall to cover. DON'T REMAIN IN PAIN! Make that call to the cross border team at Kingsbridge and get your life back!" Mrs Lennon Sheils, Co Dublin

"I couldn't speak highly enough about this excellent facility. I had the procedure done under the Cross border health initiative. This initiative is a no brainer as you are reimbursed almost totally by HSE. You do have to put the money for the op up front and that may be an issue but if you can raise it in some way then don’t suffer any longer my reason for bringing this to attention is that it is not advertised and that is a shame, Kingsbridge private hospital will bring you through the entire process." Mr McGarrell , Cavan

"

I have received two knee replacements in the last six months and I can honestly say I feel ten years younger and pain free. Best way I can describe it is, I am walking places I cannot ever remember walking before. Before I had to count my steps and the quickest way to do the job, as my knees wouldn’t withstand the pressure.

 

Finally on behalf of myself Gerard, my daughters Geraldine, Deirdre and Gráinne Ashe, we would like to sincerely thank, Dr Laurence Cusick, his surgical team, ward nurses, ancillary staff in the hospital and Andrena Orme (One2OneAdvisor) for their continuous professional care and support. Being all the way from Kerry I felt very safe and in good hands. It’s a 10/10 for me!

" Mr. Ashe, Kerry

I can't thank this hospital enough, particularly my consultant Barry Clements. I had been on the waiting list in southern Ireland for gall bladder removal surgery for a long time. My health was suffering significantly and I could no longer wait so decided to do the cross boarder scheme. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is waiting on surgery in southern Ireland. The hospital team was very helpful and all paper work that I required to be reimbursed through the HSE was given to me to send off. I waited about 10 weeks and was reimbursed most of the cost. Thanks again to Kings bridge , Barry Clements and all their team. Kind regards, Jenny
