Will you process my rebate, how much is the consult and does Dr Meredith No Gap?
Your first consultation with Dr Meredith will be charged at $200.
Subsequent consultations will be $80.
Please note WorkCover and Third Party consultations incur a different fee and our office should be advised when making the appointment and patients will require a claims approval number. Patients can pay by bank cheque, personal cheque, cash, credit card and EFTPOS. Amex surcharge of 2% applies.
Dr Meredith is a “No Gap” Surgeon for surgical procedures performed in hospital which means patients will not pay out of pocket expenses – their private health insurer will pay the difference in surgical fees, or if they go to a public hospital, this will be covered by the public system.
Dr Meredith also frequently works with anaesthetists who may apply the No Gap for Aged Pensioners or disadvantaged patients.
Please call us on (02) 8850 8133 to find out more.
