These Regulations amend the Personal Injuries (NHS Charges) (Amounts) (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (“the principal Regulations”) which make provision in relation to the amount of NHS charges which a person (who pays compensation to an injured person) is liable to pay, where that injured person has received National Health Service treatment or ambulance services.
Regulation 2 amends regulation 2G of the principal Regulations and inserts regulation 2H into the principal Regulations to increase the charges in respect of injuries which occur on or after 1st April 2015. Where the injured person is provided with NHS ambulance services, the charge is increased from £192 to £195 for each occasion the service is provided. Where the injured person receives NHS treatment but is not admitted to hospital, the charge is increased from £637 to £647. The daily charge for NHS in-patient treatment is increased from £783 to £796. The maximum charge in respect of an injury is increased from £46,831 to £47,569.
