There are three levels of charges for patients attending the service depending on the extent of tests required.

Level A €295 - Basic Charge

Level B €395 - Intermediate Charge

Level C €495 - Maximum Charge

All of the above charges include the assessment fee and cost of all necessary investigations. In the event of the patient being admitted, the patient will only have to pay a €120 assessment fee.

Should admission be required following assessment, patients are required to have an appropriate level of private health insurance or the ability to self-pay.  Normal insurance shortfalls will apply when a patient attending the MAU is admitted as a patient, and patients should check their insurance cover in this regard.

Arranging appointments:

Your GP must call MAU to speak with the physician on-call on the day, once the patient has been accepted by the physician, please email [email protected] or you may also refer via Healthlink.
