Patient Information

Procedures:

We provide gap-free endoscopy services for privately insured patients.

The hospital charges an admission fee for your procedure and depending on your health insurance policy there may be a small gap fee to pay the hospital.

We use Anaesthetists and Pathology providers who are happy to provide no gap services.

If you are uninsured, we will advise of our fees which are less than those recommended by the Australian Medical Association.

Consultations:

Unfortunately, consultations in clinic are not covered by private health insurance.

The Medicare Benefit Scheme covers 75% of the scheduled fee which has lagged significantly behind inflation over the last 30 years. Consequently, there will be a gap of between $40 – $120 depending on the length and complexity of your consultation.

If you have any queries about our fees please contact the rooms.
