Our doctors are happy to provide clinical consultations for privately insured, TAC and WorkCover patients.

TAC and WorkCover Appointments

Acceptance of TAC and WorkCover referrals is based on the details provided in the referral letter. You’ll need to provide to us:

  • a current claim number
  • contact details of your case manager
  • any approval letters for neurosurgical appointments

Once an appointment date is confirmed, we’ll need to receive a letter from WorkCover or TAC confirming that they accept the liability for the cost of your treatment. Failing the presentation of such a letter, you will have to settle the full fee yourself on the date of your visit. You will then have to claim back from their insurer.

TAC and WorkCover Surgical Fees

There may be an out-of-pocket fee for patients covered under WorkCover, TAC or DVA, depending on the individual case and the level of reimbursement approved by the relevant agency.

To schedule surgery, Neuroaxis must receive written approval from the respective funding body prior to confirming a procedure date.
