No, we do not offer any payment plans or finance options. All surgical fees must be paid in full two weeks prior to your surgical date. We have no affiliations or kickback arrangements with any medical finance companies and do not endorse or recommend any particular company.

Some procedures have Medicare item numbers applicable, which enable a rebate on both Dr Mark Lee’s fee and the anaesthetist’s fee, provided that you are covered for the Medicare item numbers as part of your private health insurance.

Having a Medicare item number means that your private health fund will cover all or part of your hospital costs, i.e. theatre and bed fees, provided that you are covered for the Medicare item numbers as part of your private health insurance.

Check with your private health insurer if you are uncertain whether your procedure will be covered or if you have any exclusions to your policy. Feel free to discuss this with our friendly staff at your consultation appointment.
