*Informed financial consent fee breakdown: A fee ranging from ~ $520-$580 is charged at the time of your visit. You then receive a Medicare reimbursement ranging from ~ $250-$310. The final figure depends on whether this is a new visit or a review visit, and whether you have a valid Medicare referral, but the out-of-pocket fee remains similar. After your visit, a medication co-contribution fee of ~$30 will be charged by the Government for the injected medication. Combining these fees and rebates, the total out-of-pocket cost to you is approximately $300 for any visit where the Dermatologist performs an anti-sweat injection.
