Fees for procedures
Private procedures will be billed “no gap”. This means if your private health insurance covers the procedure Dr Mackender’s fees will be covered by your health fund and Medicare and you will have no out of pocket costs. There may be an excess you will be required to pay by your health fund depending on the type of your cover. This excess will only be payable if you are having a procedure at a private hospital. Public hospitals will cover the cost of any excess costs your health fund may charge.
If you do not have private health insurance you can pay for procedures to be done privately and prices vary depending on the hospital and the procedure to be carried out.
Prior to all procedures a quote outlining the costs of the procedure will be provided to you. If you have any additional questions our friends staff will be happy to discuss with you.
