Patient fees

Como Private Hospital has agreements with most of the major health funds. Please ensure that you understand your responsibility for any costs you may incur. The administrative staff will be happy to discuss fee structure at any time. All out-of-pocket expenses are to be paid on admission. EFTPOS, Visa and MasterCard facilities are available.

If you are uninsured, please contact the Front Office Manager prior to your admission to obtain an estimate of the cost of your stay. Your account must be paid in full on admission.

Please note that your hospital account may consist of the following items:

Theatre fees
Accommodation
Phone calls

But does not include:

Your doctors’ account
Your Anaesthetists’ account
Radiology, Pathology or other allied health services

Please check with your health fund to determine if your contract provides coverage for these items.

If you have a pre-existing ailment, have joined your health fund within the last twelve months or have changed the level of your cover or fund, you should contact the fund to verify that you are insured for the treatment you need.

Como Private Hospital is a DVA Tier 1 preferred provider. This allows Gold cardholder’s to be admitted without prior approval (except dental and cosmetic procedures). Prior approval is required for all white and orange card holders.

Note: Private room requests are at an additional expense to the patient. Department of Veteran Affairs patients may request a visit from their local RSL representative. Please discuss your needs with your attending nurse who can arrange for this on your behalf. We also provide help and support through our Veteran Liaison Officer.
