Hi Some thought processes when choosing to go public or private for radiotherapy. Doesn't hurt to obtain a quote for private, is there a cost for parking, do you reach the safety net with Medicare...
Private radio was going to cost me $2,000 gap/out of pocket. 3 minutes drive from there, I'm attending publicly & they've given me a pass for free parking in the section in front of the main hospital building for me to park when attending for treatments. This helps greatly as I race to & from work for appointments and this saves me parking/walking further away ?? I'm glad we have choices. I see my surgeons privately, had my first surgery & will be having upcoming sugery in a private hospital but I'm having radiotherapy via public system ?
