GP hearing test referrals
- All Hearing tests (audiometry and tympanometry) referred to us by a GP has a Medicare rebate. Some private services, like cerumen removal, do not have a Medicare rebate.
GP Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDMP) (formerly Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) ). NSAudiology can offer services under the CDMP. Often patients with chronic disease require hearing tests and we can provide a safe and comfortable environment for your patients to undergo testing. For patients with compromised immune systems, you can be confident that the clinic is sterilised according to the NSW Health guidelines. The Medicare item number for Audiologists is 10952.
Ear Nose and Throat specialist referrals NSAudiology conduct all Audiological testing. Please get in touch with us if you need something specific that is not listed. All patients referred by an ENT are eligible for a Medicare rebate for most tests. Vestibular testing is a private test and there is no Medicare item number for Audiologists, and therefore no rebate is available.
Pensioners Services are covered under the Australian Government’s Hearing Services Program, administered by the Department of Health through the Hearing Services Program (HSP). All pensioners with an HSP voucher receive a hearing assessment, consultation, hearing aids (if applicable) and ongoing rehabilitation services with no out-of-pocket expenses.
Ear wax removal using micro-suction. NSAudiology offers cerumen removal using a microscope and micro-suction (dry removal). If a patient has not been to see us before we will also conduct tympanometry and a brief hearing screen after the ear wax removal. This is a private service and does not have a Medicare rebate.
Cochlear Implants. We work with adults, families and surgeons providing services for Cochlear Implants. We provide mapping and aftercare services. Our Audiologist who delivers Cochlear Implant services wears Bilateral Cochlear Implants, giving her a unique understanding of your patients.
