At Fraser Coast Paeds we want you to know in advance how much fees you will pay for our service.  We provide private paediatric specialist services and this is NOT a bulk-billing practice. Please expect an out of pocket cost with ALL consultations. If you are unable to afford private fees, your GP can refer you to the local public hospital.

 # In general, if you are a new patient or your GP provides a new referral for the medical condition to be reviewed, and the last referral has expired and you were last seen by the specialist more than 9 months earlier for that condition, you will be charged item 110 or 132. You will also be charged for a 110 or 132 if you are a known patient but referred by your GP for a different reason/condition.

​

NB

** Telephone consultations will only be arranged at the discretion of the paediatrician. Expect to pay an out of pocket fee as per item 91836. They will NOT be bulk billed.

**Video consultations are the preferred mode of consultation where a patient is unable to attend in person.

**Video consultations are billed at the same rate as face to face consultations- they will NOT be bulk billed

***An ASD assessment often requires a number of medical consultations and allied health assessments before a diagnosis is made
