Overview

Fast, Trusted GP Referrals to Support Your Health Insurance Claims

If your private health insurer has asked you to obtain a GP referral before authorising treatment, LivingCare can help. Our Private GP service offers fast access to experienced doctors who understand the referral process and can support your journey to treatment with minimal delays. Whether you’re seeking a referral for a specialist consultation, diagnostic test, or treatment, we provide clear, professional medical guidance and referral letters tailored to your insurer’s requirements.

Why Do Insurers Request a GP Referral?

Most private health insurance providers require a GP referral before agreeing to fund treatment. This is to ensure the correct clinical pathway is being followed, the treatment is medically appropriate, and everything is clearly documented for authorisation and claims. At LivingCare, we regularly support patients who need a GP referral as the first step to accessing treatment - and we’re here to make the process fast, easy and stress-free.

What We Offer

  • Same-day and next-day appointments available across our Yorkshire clinics
  • GPs experienced in working with insured patients and familiar with insurer requirements
  • Referral letters issued promptly and written to meet insurance standards
  • Support for a wide range of treatment areas, including dermatology, urology, gastroenterology, cardiology, and more
  • Options for further treatment within LivingCare or with your chosen specialist

How It Works

Book an appointment with a Private GP, either online or by phone. During your consultation, you’ll have the chance to discuss your symptoms and medical history. If appropriate, your GP will provide a referral letter that you can submit to your insurer. Once authorised, you’ll be ready to move forward with treatment - either through LivingCare or another provider.

Why Choose LivingCare?

LivingCare offers fast, convenient access to high-quality GPs, with clinics across Yorkshire and short wait times. We understand how private healthcare and insurance processes work, and we’ll support you at every stage - from initial consultation to referral and beyond.
