Account payment responsibility

The Cardiovascular Centre is a private billing practice and fees are payable at the time of consultation. It is practice policy that all accounts are settled in full on the day of your consultation.

Our fees are set by the doctors in the practice and patients should be aware that individual doctors may bill at different rates. Our doctors generally do not bulk bill for consultations or investigations, thus an out-of-pocket expense should be expected. The overall cost of your care at the Cardiovascular Centre will vary depending on the number and length of your consultations and the investigations you require. We recommend you discuss what fees you might expect with the reception staff PRIOR to your appointment, as the cost of your care may vary between visits.

We encourage our patients to register their bank account details with Medicare to allow for prompt reimbursement of the Medicare rebate to the nominated bank account. Patients can register online at www.humanservices.gov.au/online or download a Medicare Bank Account details form.

No Referral Policy

If you present to your appointment without a valid referral you are liable for the full fee on the day of the visit. Medicare will not provide a rebate with no valid referral. Please ask our reception staff any questions you have about our fee policy.

Patient Agreement

I have read the information about fees above and have no further questions about the Cardiovascular Centre’s fee policy. I understand that full payment is expected on the day of my appointment. I accept full responsibility for the fees associated with my care.

I understand that reasonable means will be used to protect the security and confidentiality of the email.
