CT Scancost, bulk billing & Medicare
Most CT scans referred by a doctor attract a Medicare rebate, and many Australian radiology clinics bulk bill CT for eligible patients — meaning no out-of-pocket cost. Where private fees apply, they vary by body region and whether contrast is used, so it pays to compare clinics.
A referral from your GP or specialist is required for a Medicare rebate. The vast majority of doctor-referred CT scans are Medicare-eligible at radiology practices across Victoria.

How long does a CT scan take?
The scan itself usually takes under a minute; the whole appointment is typically 10–30 minutes, longer if contrast dye is used.
What is contrast dye and will I need it?
Contrast is an iodine-based dye, given by injection or drink, that makes blood vessels and organs show up more clearly. Your referring doctor decides if it is needed. Tell the clinic about any allergies or kidney problems in advance.
Is a CT scan safe?
CT uses X-ray radiation, but modern scanners keep doses low and your doctor will only refer you when the benefit outweighs the small risk. Tell the radiographer if you are or might be pregnant.
