About Wide Bay Hospital & Health Service
As a patient of this Hospital and Health Service, you have the choice to be treated as a private or public patient. The Wide Bay Hospital and Health Service provides some of the most advanced specialist services available, incorporating all major health specialties including Medicine, Surgery, Psychiatry, Oncology, Women's and Newborn services as well as Trauma Services.
Private patients are asked to complete a National Private Patient Hospital Claim Form. This will be provided to your health fund detailing your treatment and your consent to utilise your private health insurance.
To minimise any inconvenience to private patients, the majority of the Medical Specialists participate in efficient billing practices including 'no gap' arrangements with major health funds. This ensures that your medical bills are handled directly by your health fund, rather than patients having to liaise with medicare and their health fund to receive rebates.
