Information on hospital charges & paying a hospital bill

Beaumont is a public hospital which means there are no charges for public inpatient or day care services for Irish Residents.  There are charges if you are a non EU resident and you can see these charges below,

If you attend the emergency department (ED) of a public hospital without a referral letter from a GP or family doctor you will need to pay a hospital charge of €100.  Please make sure you bring the letter from the GP with you if you have visited the practice beforehand.  Sometimes the GP will phone ahead to let us know that they are sending you into us.  

Medical card holders and certain other groups do not have to pay ED hospital charges (please provide your medical card details when you are registering in ED).

If you are admitted to the hospital from the emergency department, the €100 charge will not apply.
