            Frequently asked questions

            Discounted face-to-face physiotherapy

            Who provides this service?

            We’ve partnered with Ascenti, a trusted third-party provider. This means that when patients take out a Denplan payment plan, they will have access to a nationwide network of physiotherapists at a discounted rate.


            Patients can access discounted physiotherapy sessions at a choice of over 300 clinics nationwide.

            This service enables people to make headway after illness and injury, step back into work after accidents, or simply stay active and keep moving forward in their daily lives.

            What is the face-to-face physiotherapy service?

            Patients can book in-person physiotherapy sessions with Ascenti at a discounted rate of £46 per session for London clinics, and £42.50 per session for the rest of the UK.

            Once a course of treatment has started with Ascenti, patients will also have access to the 'Ascenti Physio’ app for 12 months, which will continue to support recovery.

            How can patients access this service?

            The link to the face-to-face physiotherapy service can be found via MyDenplan. Simply click on the ‘Discounted physio appointments’ tile, and you’ll be taken directly to the booking site to schedule an appointment.

            Can children use this service?

            The discounts are currently only available for payers and patients of Denplan who are over the age of 16 and registered on a Denplan plan.

            Discounted medical scans

            Who provides this service?

            We've teamed up with Scan.com who are a trusted third-party provider. Scan.com are a leading network of private medical imaging services, giving patients speedy and discounted access to private MRI, CT, X-ray, and Ultrasound scans.

            Scans booked through Scan.com are discounted for those who take out a Denplan payment plan, and a discount will be shown before payment is made.

            How do I access this service?

            If patients are over the age of 18, they can access the service through MyDenplan. To get started, they just need to click on the tile for ‘Access to discounted scans and screening’.

            Do patients need a GP referral or self-referral?

            A key benefit of discounted self-referred scanning is that patients don't need a GP referral to book a scan. Instead, included in the cost of the scan is a pre- and post-scan consultation call with a clinician.

            Once a patient has booked and made payment for a scan, a clinician will contact them and ask for all of the relevant information they need to compile a referral on their behalf, which is then passed on to their chosen scanning site.

            How will patients receive their results?

            Once a patient has had a scan, their radiologist’s report will be emailed to them in PDF format, usually within 7 working days.

            Digital copies of their images are also available as required for onward care. The method for accessing the images differs depending on their chosen scanning site.

            Some sites use IEP (Image Exchange Portal), while others require an image request form to be completed. Patients are advised to refer to their results email for further information.

            What’s included in the price of their booking?

            • A pre-scan consultation telephone call from one of Scan.com's medical team

            • A written referral by the Scan.com medical team, using the information from the telephone consultation

            • A scan at a chosen scanning centre

            • Results in a written report

            • Access to copies of scan images, which are downloadable, as required

            • A post-scan consultation with one of Scan.com's medical team, if there are any adverse findings in the scan

            How long does an MRI scan take?

            An MRI scan on a single body part typically can take between 10–30 minutes.

            More complex scans can last up to 90 minutes. These time frames can vary, and your radiographer will let a patient know the estimated duration of their scan before the procedure starts.

            Visit Scan.com's MRI services page for more information on how MRI scans work.

            Can patients cancel and get a refund?

            Yes, they do offer cancellations and refunds. For more information, visit Scan.com's terms and conditions.
