Cost
I just wanted to let everyone know if you don't know already that once you reach the safety net with Medicare out of pocket expenses which is approx $1200 you get the govt rebate back plus 80% of the out of pocket expense which means you get most of your costs back from Medicare. I went private for Radiation as it meant I didn't have to drive far by doing this and it has all worked out wonderfully. With surgery extras and out of pockets already I quickly hit the net and I pay very little for most of the radiation and the travel is so convenient.
The safety net has been a big help
