Inpatient Applicants


If the treatment involves an overnight stay in hospital then it will need to be authorised in advance by the HSE.
Prior authorisation can be obtained following the submission of completed application form, accompanied by the appropriate clinician referring letter, in sufficient time to allow the HSE to assess and make a decision.
The HSE application form for prior authorisation should be completed by you, the patient, and by the medical professional who is referring you for treatment abroad.
