Hi there
i chose to go private for my radiotherapy as it was closer to work for me. I paid $400 out of pocket for 33 treatments. It was cheaper for me than going public (parking, toll roads, extra petrol and time off work) They sent the invoices to Medicare so the money was in my account before deducted it . I think it was about $65 per week that was deducted out of my account on top of the Medicare money. The radio oncologist fees were on top of this and also the scan to set up where the radiation needed to be done. All up, I was about $800 out of pocket. Hope this helps. Good luck. Karen xox
