Cost of private Health treatment

Has anyone had private medical treatment in Austria and if so how do the costs compare with the UK?
Thanks

Re: Cost of private Health treatment

Usually the traffic comes in this direction - Austrians coming to Hungary to avoid the high cost of Austria, both medical and dental !
But sorry I have no idea about the cost in Austria.

I spend several months every year in Austria. For medical treatment/dental I travel to Germany. One reason is hours waiting in outpatient depts. in Austrian hospital and no priority for private client , other is high fee for private client. Private practice (GP) a consultation was 100 € basic fee plus whatever needed to be done.

I'm not familiar with UK fees but I doubt Austria will be less
