Private billing in your practice

Optometry Australia has developed a calculator that allows you to determine an appropriate fee to charge a patient for services or procedures that fall outside Medicare.

The tool can be used to calculate fees for procedures such as foreign body removal and services such as digital imaging, and by both single and multiple practitioner businesses.

Note: You need to log in to view and use the Optometry Australia Fee calculator tool.

It also taught him how to think critically, work closely with other health professionals and understand how healthcare systems work – all skills that would serve him well far beyond the consulting room.
