Bulk Billing All Ultrasound and Mammograms
TEMPORARY CHANGE TO BILLING POLICY
BULK BILL ALL ULTRASOUND SCANS, ULTRASOUND GUIDED PROCEDURES & MAMMOGRAMS
EFFECTIVE MONDAY, 6th APRIL 2020
As many people across the Gold Coast and Tweed areas are impacted by COVID-19, we want our patients and referrers to know that during this very difficult time, South Coast Radiology are putting in place measures to assist.
To that end we announce, effective Monday 6th April, we will Bulk Bill all ultrasound scans, ultrasound guided procedures and mammograms at all SCR practice locations.
This temporary Bulk Bill initiative underscores our commitment to support the financial health and well-being of our community during these trying times. Our core value as an organisation is simply: patients first. As we all cope with this crisis together, we feel anything we can do to ease the anxiety for our community is the right thing to do.
* Does not include: Echocardiograms or Breast Procedures, eg. FNA and Hookwires
* Patients must have a valid Australian Medicare Card and scans must be covered under the Medicare Benefits Scheme
* Mammograms performed at the following practice locations: Tweed Heads, Robina and The Women’s Imaging Centre – Southport
