e-Learning for overseas visitor cost recovery

Health Education England elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh) has worked in partnership with the Department of Health to develop an elearning programme for NHS staff directly involved in the process of recovering treatment costs from overseas visitors and migrants.

The Department of Health is working to improve the systems for charging overseas visitors and migrants for their NHS healthcare in England. The principle that the NHS is free at the point of delivery for residents will not be undermined by this work. The aim is to support and reinforce the principle of fairness by ensuring that everyone who can should contribute to the cost of the NHS.

The elearning is also relevant for staff who want to learn more about the charging rules and their role in supporting their NHS Trust to implement them. There are sessions that are targeted for specific audiences, including overseas visitor managers, frontline staff and clinicians.

The elearning is designed to support NHS organisations in their implementation of the Charging Regulations.
