Some pathology tests are not eligible for a Medicare rebate and will incur a charge. Some of the more common tests in this category include ThinPrep, FISH and DNA. In addition to this, other tests such as HPV and Thrombotic Assays are only rebatable when certain medical criteria are met. If you are concerned in regards to charges associated with a test, please discuss with your doctor at the time of consultation. Alternatively, please contact our Accounts Department on 1800 350 046 for further clarification.
