Costs
Getting treatment while being put to sleep will incur three fees:
Dental treatment
Hospital
Anaesthetist
Dental treatment fee
You will be provided with a fee estimate for your dental treatment after discussing your concerns and treatment options. If you have a private health fund, they will be able to advise how much they will contribute to your treatment costs based on the estimate provided. If you are considering using your superannuation, please contact AccessMySuper.
Hospital & Anaesthetist fee
We will assist in providing you fee estimates for the hospital and anaesthetist. Patients with private hospital cover may have no out-of-pocket fees or only be out of pocket an excess for the hospital fee component as per their private health fund agreement. Medicare also contributes to the anaesthetist fee component. Payment plans are availble for certain hospitals and you may be eligible to use your superannuation.
