Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Road Traffic (NHS Charges) Regulations 1999 (“the principal Regulations”) which provide for a scheme for the recovery, from insurers and certain other persons, of charges in connection with the treatment of road traffic casualties by the National Health Service (NHS).
Amendments made to the principal Regulations by regulation 2 increase the amount of the charges. Where a traffic casualty receives NHS treatment, but is not admitted to hospital, in respect of an incident which occurs on or after 1st April 2006, the charge is increased from £483 to £505. The daily charge for NHS in-patient treatment in respect of an incident which occurs on or after 1st April 2006 is increased from £593 to £620. The maximum charge for in-patient treatment in respect of an incident which occurs on or after 1st April 2006 is increased from £35,500 to £37,100.
Regulation 3 is a saving provision which maintains the current charges for incidents occurring before 1st April 2006.
