The fee for your anaesthetic is determined by each individual anaesthetist in Anaesthetic Services. Each anaesthetist has individual fees.
Estimates
Estimates can be given on your “out of pocket expense”. To provide you with the most accurate estimate possible we need the following information
- Do you have insurance.. if yes, which fund?
- What operation are you having done?
- An estimation of the length of time the operation will take?
This information can provided to you by the surgeon who will be performing your operation.
We encourage patients to contact us to obtain an estimate regarding their surgery.
Patients without Private Hospital Health Insurance
Patients who do not have private hospital cover are required to make some payment before your anaesthetic. Dependant on who your anaesthetist is, you may be asked to pay the Total account or the “out of pocket” expense.
You should receive an estimate of fees in the mail; which you are required to pay two working days prior to surgery. Personal cheques are not accepted for these payments.
If you have not received an account please contact us for an estimate.
