7 years agoI have had a few scans where they injected dye into my arm with a very fine needle and then had to come back a few hours later, but I asked for the second one to be bulk billed and the first one was automatically bulk billed. Both were to test for metastatic cancer. They might have been bone scans as they were of my whole body. I’m not sure about PET scans. My doctors might have avoided them because they were so expensive. I’ve had a lot of CT scans.
