Travel advice is covered by the NHS; however some vaccinations and prescriptions are only available privately. Payment for non-NHS services must be made at the first travel appointment.
If the immunisation required is advised by the government for travel to a particular country or region, then the cost is payable by the NHS. For some countries it is often advisable to have other immunisations e.g. Hepatitis B or Rabies and the cost of these is payable in full by the patient plus an administration fee.
Malaria therapy is not available on an NHS prescription so where necessary there is a charge of £15 for a private prescription.
(please ask the practice nurse for full details and the costs of dependant on your particular needs)
