Hi Lisa
I suggest you or your mother ring her private health fund and ask if they would cover part of the cost of the test for her. At the moment, I don't think any of the private health funds include Oncotype DX as part of their normal coverage, but they do have discretion to pay out on items that are not listed. They assess these applications on a case by case basis, so your mum would have to make an application to them for a payment. It would be worth a phone call in the first instance.
