Pathologists warn fees not covered by VHI
The Bon Secours Pathologists Group has written to patients advising them that VHI Healthcare no longer fully covers pathology fees in the hospital. However, the pathologists state that they continue to operate a full cover scheme with other medical insurance companies, such as BUPA, which has its Irish headquarters in Fermoy.
Tests carried out at the pathology department often include blood, urine, phlegm swabs and biopsies.
