For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4), the hospital charges, fees and other expenses forming the subject matter of an application include any hospital charges, fees and other expenses incurred by the eligible patient for any other treatment received by him or her from the approved institution which does not involve the administration of any cell, tissue or gene therapy product if, and only if, such other treatment is received within the same hospitalisation period as the treatment involving the administration of any cell, tissue or gene therapy product from the approved institution.
