Patient accounts
If you do not have a Medicare card or private health insurance, the hospital's Patient Accounts department will provide you with an invoice before your consultation.
You will need to pay this account at our cashiers' office, located on the ground floor of the hospital. For patients attending the Women's Community Clinics or attending the hospital out of business hours, invoices will be posted.
If you are having elective surgery, our Patient Accounts department and Overseas Patient Coordinator can give you more information about costs. All elective surgery patients need to pay before the surgery takes place.
