In Australia, there are two main fee guides for specialists like cardiologists:

• Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS): This is the government’s standard fee. Medicare pays a rebate that covers part of your consultation.

• Australian Medical Association (AMA) Fees: These are higher recommended fees that reflect the real costs of running a specialist practice, such as staff, equipment, and insurance.

Most private practices charge somewhere between the Medicare and AMA fees.

“Expert heart care, tailored for you. Private consultations give you more time, advanced testing, and personalized treatment—an investment in your heart health.”
