Sorry in advance if any of this is a stupid question:(
I have been referred to my local hospital gynae department regarding my difficulty in getting pregnant. I saw a dr there last month who sent me to do the usual Day 21 test, my husband having his sperm analysed this week and I need to have a HSG xray. The HSG xray letter says that the department has only a few slots a week at the xray department and it could take several months for it to be done. Only then can I see the dr again to get results! Add to the fact that my cycles are long and it has to be done in the first ten days and I dont know how long that will take.
I have some basic private cover with my husband's work and found out that the HSG test is covered, but not fertility treatment obviously like IVF etc. Does anyone know if I can have the HSG done privately and possibly get to see the consultant earlier privately if she is a BUPA dr, but then have NHS treatment if I needed fertility treatment?
Sorry if this is not a pertinent question!

Can I combine NHS treatment with private health cover?
