Charlottenlund Private Hospital offers fast and highly specialized treatment to patients who want to avoid waiting time in the public sector, either through the extended free choice of hospital, a private health insurance or as a private payer.
We have no waiting time, and we carry out all kinds of investigations, examinations and treatments in the ear-nose-throat area. Cancer treatments are an exception to this. We were approved as an agreement hospital in January 2020 and treat many patients every month through the extended free choice of hospital.
If you are a patient in a public hospital, you have the right to be investigated, examined or treated within four weeks. If this time frame cannot be observed, you gain the right to be investigated, examined or treated by a private hospital. If you are investigated, examined or treated through extended free choice of hospital, there is no out-of-pocket payment for the treatment, as the costs are covered by the region.
Charlottenlund Privathospital Nordsjælland is approved as an agreement hospital within the extended free choice of hospital by the Regions. This means that even if you live in Region South or Central - you also have the option of being treated at Charlottenlund Private Hospital.
The treatment guarantee comes into effect if you have to wait more than 30 days for a planned treatment or if your surgery date is changed. If, for example, you need to have your tonsils removed, and the treatment guarantee of four weeks cannot be met in the public sector, you can be operated on at Charlottenlund Private Hospital. The treatment guarantee has for a period been set up to 60 days, but has been lowered again to 30 days per 1.1. 2025
The procedure itself takes place when you receive a letter in your mailbox stating that you have obtained the right to treatment through extended free choice of hospital. You must then contact the patient advisor associated with the hospital to which you have been referred. You can see current waiting times on Mit Sygehusvalg. The patient advisor makes sure to contact the selected private hospital and send the necessary information. Finally, dublot must call the private hospital to make further arrangements regarding the treatment.
ATTENTION! you must be aware that the waiting period of 4 weeks is calculated as 30 days from the date on which the hospital in your region of residence receives a referral from your doctor, and until the date on which the treatment can start.
Rights when changing the operation date
If you have been offered an operation date which the hospital subsequently changes, you also have the right to choose to have the operation carried out at a private contract hospital - regardless of the extent of the postponement.

The investigation guarantee is also called the right to a quick investigation. It comes into effect when you are referred to a public hospital by a doctor to be investigated (examined for the cause of your symptoms), but the waiting period exceeds 30 days. In the public sector, it is not always possible to comply with this time frame, and therefore you obtain the right to be examined in a private hospital.
Just as with the treatment guarantee, the practicalities surrounding the use of the investigation guarantee take place through a patient advisor. The patient advisor acts as a contact person between you and the private hospital. As a private hospital, we only start the investigation when the purchase order and medical records have been received - not before.
