Excellent low cost anaesthetic billing and private practice service. All I have to worry about is providing the anaesthetic service (Fast Tracking does the rest of the billing, scheduling and communication with hospitals & surgeons rooms). Highly professional staff. With one short phone call any anaesthetist can easily setup their own private practice with minimal hassle and no setup costs. The online software is simple to use.Dr Michael ChappellGoogle review

01Who It’s For
An anaesthetic billing service for every stage of practice.
Anaesthetists at different stages of practice need different things from a billing service. The service is the same; what changes is how we set you up.
i.
New to private practice
We register you with the health funds, set up Eclipse, DVA and WorkCover, and can set up your practice phone number, website and email.
No setup fees. No minimum monthly fee.

The admin many billing services quietly hand back to you.
Why our anaesthetic billing service is structured the way it is: we deal with your surgical rooms directly.
Billers that don’t collect lists
// What they ask of you
- Collect weekly operating lists from surgical rooms
- Email or upload the lists to your service each week
- Chase the rooms when a list is late or changes
- Re-send corrections when patients are added or removed
- Brief a new admin person every time a room changes software
Fast Tracking
// What we ask of you
- Nothing — we already have your lists
- Nothing — they come direct from the rooms
- Nothing — we manage that relationship
- Nothing — rooms tell us, we update
- Nothing — that’s our job
How it works. When you join us, you tell us which surgical rooms you work with. We contact each one, introduce ourselves, and build the relationship. From that point on, your lists come directly to us — every week, automatically.
Prefer to send the lists in yourself? You can. A few of our anaesthetists do — it’s their choice, never a requirement.

03The Team
The people who actually do your anaesthetic billing.
Every anaesthetist we look after has a named Account Manager in our Bendigo office — a real person who learns your surgeons, your rooms and your preferences. No call centre, no offshore desk, no ticket numbers.

More about the team and how we work →
Our Account Managers are anaesthetic-billing specialists, not generalists. They train specifically on quality-assurance review of every claim — catching missed modifiers, time-unit errors and sequencing issues before submission — and on the quirks of how individual health funds process anaesthetic claims. That review layer, plus careful lodgement and weekly rejection follow-up, is what keeps your claims moving — competence, not luck.
Founded in 2018 by Dr Brad Hindson, a practising specialist anaesthetist, Fast Tracking is structured to deliver the kind of attention a clinician would want for their own billing. Small enough that the team knows your practice. Large enough that you’re never reliant on one person.
Boutique by design, not by accident. Maintaining direct relationships with every surgical room our anaesthetists work with takes time, attention and follow-through. It is hard to do at scale, which is why many billing services leave list-collection with the doctor. We can do it because we’ve chosen not to scale past the point where personal service breaks down.
“Your administration reflects you. The standards your patients see before they meet you are the standards they’ll attribute to you.”Dr Brad Hindson · MBBS FANZCA, Founder

Anaesthetic billing for Australian anaesthetists, nationwide.
Fast Tracking provides anaesthetic billing services to specialist anaesthetists across Australia. Our team is based in Bendigo, Victoria, and we work remotely with anaesthetists in private practice across Australia — collecting operating lists from their surgical rooms, managing patient pre-op communication, and following every claim through Medicare and the private health funds until it’s resolved.
Whether you’re billing from a single hospital or rotating across multiple sites, the service is the same — direct, considered, boutique by design. We have pages for anaesthetists in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Hobart and regional Victoria, including our Melbourne anaesthetic billing service, and an overview of all the places we work.
06From Our Anaesthetists
What anaesthetists say about our billing service.
I’ve been using Fast Tracking Anaesthetic Billing Services for years and have always found them to be excellent — fast, accurate, and very reliable. Staff are friendly, easy to reach, helpful with queries, and handle client issues with professionalism. Highly recommended.Dr Peter Ching8 years with Fast Tracking
I have been associated with Fast Tracking for over 3 years after deciding to establish my own anaesthetic practice in a rural area. Brad and his staff were incredibly helpful as I worked my way through a stressful and challenging process. Fast Tracking had solutions for the multiple problems a new practice faces, making the process of setting up a practice very easy. The fees for this professional care were below average practice costs and remained low for all my time with Fast Tracking. The feedback from my patients regarding the service provided by Fast Tracking staff was uniformly positive.Dr Wal GrimmettGoogle review
How does Fast Tracking’s anaesthetic billing service work, day to day?
We handle the patient journey from pre-op to payment while you stay in theatre. Before surgery, we contact each patient by email, SMS, post or phone with informed financial consent and an introduction to you as their anaesthetist. After surgery, we raise invoices to patients, health funds, Medicare and WorkCover. Patients pay by card, BPay or BPoint, and we follow up rejected and outstanding claims every week until they are resolved.
What does an anaesthetic billing service actually do?
An anaesthetic billing service handles the workflow between your operating list and your bank deposit. We collect your lists from the surgical rooms each week, send informed financial consent to patients seven days before surgery, raise invoices within 48 hours of receiving your MBS codes and times, lodge and reconcile Medicare, Eclipse, health fund, DVA and WorkCover claims, and follow up rejected claims weekly.
How much does Fast Tracking charge?
One published rate: 4.5% of what we collect, plus GST, with nothing charged on rejected or uncollected claims. The fee table, calculator and a sample invoice are on our anaesthetic billing pricing page.
How is Fast Tracking different from larger billing companies?
We are boutique by design. Keeping the practice small lets us maintain direct relationships with the surgical rooms our anaesthetists work with, so you never have to collect your own operating lists. Each anaesthetist also has a named Account Manager in our Bendigo office, and every claim in your first fortnight is checked by a senior biller.
How do I switch anaesthetic billing services without losing in-flight claims?
Pick a cut-over date. Your previous biller stays responsible for the claims it has already lodged; we bill everything from your first list with us, so nothing is billed twice and nothing is lost. Ask your previous biller for final reports and keep portal access until those claims settle. There is no setup fee for switching. How switching works →
Am I locked into a contract?
No. There is no lock-in contract, no exit fee and no notice-period games. If we are not delivering, you should be free to leave — we would rather earn your billing every month than enforce it.
Do I pay if a claim is rejected or never collected?
No. Our fee is 4.5% + GST of what we actually collect for you. Nothing is charged on rejected or uncollected claims, so we are only paid when you are.
Are there any hidden or surprise fees?
No. There are no setup fees, software charges, minimum monthly fees or debt-collection markups. You receive one invoice a month: 4.5% + GST of what we collected the month before.
Do you provide anaesthetic billing in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Hobart?
Yes. Fast Tracking provides anaesthetic billing services to specialist anaesthetists in every Australian capital city and regional centre. Our team is based in Bendigo, Victoria, and works remotely with anaesthetists Australia-wide. See our locations page for city-specific information.
