NHS Travel Expenses

University of Edinburgh Doctors holding a NHS Honorary Contract who need to claim legitimate travel expenses for NHS work should complete the appropriate NHS claim form and have this signed off by the appropriate NHS budget holder/authoriser.

NHS Lothian Travel Expenses

Once signed and authorised your claim form should be emailed to DDiTexpenses@nhslothian.scot.nhs.uk.

Please mark it as"Honorary" and quote your University employee number on your claim. The Authoriser must be on the Authorised Signatory Database for NHS Lothian and the NHS Lothian Cost Centre should also be on your claim. 

NHS Lothian will then arrange for the expenses to be paid to you via the University and the University will be reimbursed from the NHS.

Please note that this process only relates to specific authorised NHS travel and expense claims. All other claims (e.g. for University conferences or other University work) should be claimed through eExpenses and the cost met by the University.
