Harmony test at kings college

Hi all,
I'm new here and as I'm 40, expecting my first baby, my midwife has suggested having the harmony test at kings and using my scan from the NHS to cut the price. She reckons it's around £300.
Has anyone had it here and used the scan? How much was it?

So are you not in the King's catchment? Where are you booked to have your nuchal scan now? I had the Harmony test at King's two years ago for free as my nuchal scan put my risk assessment at 92:1. Have my next nuchal scan next week and expecting to be offered Harmony again.

I'm not sure what you mean about trying to offset a cost against another.

No, I'm not in the catchment area, or at least I don't think I'm am (my booking in bloods were only yesterday and no scan as yet)
my midwife has just recommended it because of my age at my booking in appointment. My scan is next week on the NHS and she is saying that the scan can be used at kings, so I'm only paying for the blood test and not both. I've had a look on the private clinics which is between £400-550 but she thinks it's around £300 on kings but blood test only. X

I had the full harmony package at the fetal medical centre for £400 and used the scan there instead of having the NHS one done at 12 weeks. They were happy to take the FMC scan and harmony results in my file.
