Priority treatment for Veterans

If you have a health problem caused by your time in the armed forces, you will usually go on a waiting list before you receive care. However, you may be able to receive NHS care quicker than normal through priority treatment for veterans. Priority treatment is not guaranteed. Receiving priority treatment depends on your situation and the nature of the treatment required.

This includes:

  • if other people have a higher clinical need than you
  • the urgency of your treatment
  • the type of treatment you need

If you have served in the Military please let our Reception Team know, they can update your records.
