Practitioners are reminded that it is good practice to seek to determine from personal injury clients whether they have private medical insurance cover and, where appropriate, to include such health costs as special damages. For Vhi policyholders, details of this nature can be obtained from Vhi by emailing recoveries@vhi.ie. It is important to include the client's Vhi policy number.
Before giving any undertaking, practitioners should ensure that they have their client's irrevocable authority to do so and that they are in a position to comply with the terms of the undertaking.
