Cost & bulk billing
X-rays are one of the most affordable imaging tests in Australia, and the majority of radiology clinics bulk bill X-rays for patients with a valid referral and Medicare card, meaning no out-of-pocket cost. Private fees, where charged, are typically modest.
Referral & Medicare
You need a referral from a GP, specialist, dentist, physiotherapist, or other eligible health practitioner. With a valid referral, most X-rays attract a Medicare rebate. Many clinics accept walk-ins with a referral. No appointment needed.
Preparing for your X-ray
- No special preparation is needed for most X-rays.
- Wear comfortable clothing without metal (zippers, buttons, jewellery) over the area being imaged.
- Bring your referral and Medicare card to the appointment.
- Tell the radiographer if you are or might be pregnant.
