Are you a patient who claims for your travel expenses?

Please note, from January 2026, there will be no patient facing cash offices at Poole or the Royal Bournemouth hospitals for you to receive cash.

If you are eligible to claim for travel expenses, you should use an NHS HC5(T) form which you can find online or in the department you are visiting.

The money will then be paid straight into your account.

If you have any issues, please let the team involved in your care know.
