FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist?
No. As primary health care practitioners no referral is required to see a Podiatrist.
How much will I get back from private health?
This varies from fund to fund. The item code we use for your 40 minute initial appointment is a F004 and the cost is $92 (unless you are with BUPA). Quote these items to your health fund to find out exactly how much you are entitled to receive back.
How soon can I get an appointment?
Generally speaking it should be no longer than 48 hours. During periods of peak demand you may have to wait a little longer, however we will do everything we can to ensure rapid access to the care you need.
Is some of the consult covered by Medicare?
If your GP has provided you with a Chronic Disease Management Plan and Team Care Arrangements and has referred you to a Podiatrist you may be eligible for Medicare assistance.
What can a podiatrist actually do?
Podiatrists are trained health care professionals highly skilled in the assessment and management of leg and foot problems. Please check our list of services to see all the ways we can help.
