  • Bring your referral, Medicare card, and any previous imaging of the same area.

Ultrasoundcost, bulk billing & Medicare

Many Australian clinics bulk bill ultrasounds (particularly pregnancy and general diagnostic scans) for patients with a valid referral and Medicare card. Specialised ultrasounds (such as musculoskeletal or vascular studies) are more likely to carry a private fee at some providers.

A referral from your GP or specialist is required for a Medicare rebate. Most diagnostic ultrasounds requested by a doctor are Medicare-eligible. Check with the clinic whether your specific scan is bulk billed when you book.
