Billing:
Bulk-billing is available at all our clinics, however, some procedures, including MRI scans do incur an out-of-pocket cost. Certain procedures that may not meet Medicare guidelines, may also be subject to payment. You will be informed if any charges are to be incurred prior to your visit.
Preparations:
Our friendly reception staff will advise patients if they need to follow any particular examination preparations to be performed, prior to the procedure (e.g. fasting).
Delivery of Results:
Results are delivered to your doctor usually within 24 hours of your procedure being performed. In urgent cases, results can be delivered to the patient or faxed/emailed to the doctor within the hour.
FMIG offers a number of delivery options of reports to our referring practitioners:
Courier Delivery: FMIG operates a fast and efficient courier service, providing next day delivery
Email Reports: Reports can be downloaded directly to the doctors' computers. For security and privacy, reports are encrypted which permits the reports to be incorporated in medical records systems.
Web based delivery: The Doctors can access images and reports on the internet or on our smart phone app anytime after the results have been issued by the Radiologist.
Faxing of reports is also available upon request
Parking and Disabled Access and Public Transport
All six clinics have the advantage of ample parking, which is adjacent to our buildings. Disabled access is fully available at all sites. Public Transport facilities are adjacent to all our clinics making patient access very easy. For more information please see the location maps for each clinic Moonee Ponds, St Albans, Footscray, Hawthorn, Sunshine and Hoppers Crossing.
Appointments
It is highly recommended that appointments are made. This can be arranged directly by your doctor or yourself. It is important to bring with you the referral form prepared by your doctor. Patients with an appointment will be given priority. Patients may also be called before you due to the availability of different rooms for different examinations. It is also important that you bring your previous films with you. We appreciate your understanding.
