Perth Anaesthetic Billing Service —
boutique by design, built for WA private practice.

Fast Tracking is a boutique anaesthetic billing service founded in 2013 by a practising anaesthetist. Perth is the next capital we're expanding into. The systems, the account managers, and the 200,000+ invoices of experience are the same ones already trusted by anaesthetists across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and regional eastern Australia. We collect your operating lists direct from each Perth surgical room, every week. We answer your patients' pre-op questions on your behalf. We chase unpaid invoices, manage rejections, and follow every claim until it's resolved.

You stay in theatre. We do the rest.

Perth anaesthetic billing service — editorial still life of a closed leather logbook with a brass key resting on the cover, a half-drunk espresso cup, and a small card reading Perth, on warm linen.

What our anaesthetic billing service takes off your desk in Perth.

i.

Direct from your Perth rooms.

We contact each surgical room you work with — from St John of God Subiaco to Hollywood Private to Joondalup — and build the relationship ourselves. Your lists come to us automatically, every week. You're never the courier of your own data.

ii.

One transparent rate.

We charge 4.5%, plus GST, on revenue we successfully collect. No setup fees, no exit fees, no software charges. The full anaesthetic billing service pricing is published on the next page.

iii.

A real account manager.

Every Perth anaesthetist who joins us gets a dedicated account manager — a real person with the time to actually learn how they practise. The kind of attention that mass-scale anaesthetic billing services structurally can't offer.

Perth's private practice is concentrated, relational, and historically underserved by billing services.

Perth's private health landscape is the opposite of Sydney's. Tighter, smaller, and built on long-running relationships.

Where a Sydney anaesthetist might spread lists across a dozen unrelated hospital networks, a Perth anaesthetist's metropolitan week typically rotates through the St John of God family — Subiaco, Murdoch, Mount Lawley, Midland — alongside Hollywood Private, Mount Hospital, Joondalup, and Bethesda. Theatre management, list release, and the rhythm of how rooms communicate are all more uniform than on the eastern seaboard. The work is in depth of relationship, not breadth.

That suits a boutique billing service exactly. We deal with each surgical room individually — not at scale, not via a queue. When you join us, you tell us which Perth 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. The same ratio of attention every Perth anaesthetist would expect from a service founded by a colleague.

Hospitals and surgical centres we'd cover for Perth anaesthetists.

Perth's private practice anaesthetists typically work across the major metropolitan private hospitals, including:

  • St John of God Subiaco HospitalSubiaco
  • St John of God Murdoch HospitalMurdoch
  • St John of God Mount Lawley HospitalMount Lawley
  • St John of God Midland HospitalMidland
  • Hollywood Private HospitalNedlands
  • Mount HospitalPerth CBD
  • Bethesda HospitalClaremont
  • Joondalup Health CampusJoondalup
  • Glengarry Private HospitalDuncraig
  • Attadale Private HospitalAttadale
  • South Perth HospitalSouth Perth
  • Plus day surgery centresSubiaco · Nedlands · Joondalup · Murdoch

When you join us, we'll build the relationship with each surgical room you work in — before your first list. That's part of the service, not an extra.

A Bendigo team for a Perth practice. Distance is irrelevant.

Anaesthetic billing is asynchronous by nature. Operating lists arrive from rooms throughout the week, claims go out, exceptions get worked through, payments get reconciled. None of it requires the team to be in the same building — or the same state — as the anaesthetist. The Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane anaesthetists we already look after aren't co-located with us either; the model has been running this way for over a decade.

Time zone actually works in your favour. Our team is on shift Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm AEST — which is 7am to 3pm AWST in winter, 6am to 2pm AWST during eastern daylight time. By the time most Perth anaesthetists arrive in theatre, we're already taking calls and processing the previous day's lists. You email us before bed; the work is often done by the time you wake up.

Anaesthetic billing for regional WA.

Most anaesthetic billing services concentrate on the eastern capitals. Regional WA anaesthetists — in Bunbury, Albany, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, the South West, and the Wheatbelt — are typically left choosing between a national agency that processes them through a queue, or doing the billing themselves. Neither is the right answer for a specialist practice.

The service we'd offer regional WA is identical to what we'd offer Perth metro. Direct relationships with your surgical rooms, a dedicated account manager who learns how you practise, the same 4.5% all-inclusive rate. The only difference is which surgical rooms we'd be building relationships with on your behalf — St John of God Bunbury, St John of God Geraldton, Albany Health Campus, or wherever your private lists run.

If you're an anaesthetist in private practice anywhere in Western Australia — metropolitan or regional — we'd genuinely like to talk.

A team built around the Account Manager model — and Perth's relational style suits it perfectly.

Most billing services run on a queue: claims go in, claims come out, nobody knows your practice. Fast Tracking runs differently. Every Perth anaesthetist who joins us gets a dedicated account manager — a real person with the time and training to actually learn how they practise. Which surgeons they cover. Which Perth rooms run late on Fridays. Which patients are repeat.

Our account managers are medical-billing specialists, not generalists. They train specifically on anaesthetic MBS coding, time-based items, modifiers, and the quirks of how individual health funds — including HBF, the largest WA-based fund — process anaesthetic claims. Over 99% of our claims are accepted on first submission — the result of competence, not luck.

Your administration reflects you. The standards your patients see before they meet you are the standards they'll attribute to you.

Already with a WA billing service or doing it yourself? Migration takes about a week.

If you're currently with another billing service in Perth — whether that's a smaller WA operator, one of the larger national agencies, or a generalist medical-billing service that does anaesthetics on the side — we handle the migration entirely. You give us a single point of contact at your current provider; we coordinate the transfer of your patient records, Informed Financial Consents, and any in-flight claims.

If you're currently doing your own billing and ready to hand it off, the transition is even simpler. Most anaesthetists are fully migrated within five business days, with zero gap in collections. Free migration is included as standard. There's no setup fee, and no minimum term once you're on board.

Why anaesthetists choose our billing service. Why they stay.

A note on transparency: the testimonials below are from anaesthetists currently with us in eastern Australia. We do not yet have Perth clients, so we are not putting fake Perth-attributed reviews on this page — what these testimonials describe is the service quality you'd receive in WA exactly as you would anywhere else we work.

Fast Tracking has been doing my anaesthetic billing for the last ten years. They are very organised and efficient and get it done without any stress or hassle. They are up to date with technology and are always available. They go out of the way often by doing more than necessary to make patients comfortable.
Dr Diwakara Madina FANZCA · 10 years with Fast Tracking
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.

Common questions about anaesthetic billing services in Perth.

Do you currently look after Perth anaesthetists?
Not yet — Perth is the next capital we're growing into. The systems, the account managers, and the 200,000+ invoices of experience are the same ones already trusted by anaesthetists across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and regional eastern Australia. The only thing new is which Perth surgical rooms we'd be building relationships with on your behalf. Being early gives you the deepest attention from a senior account manager — the boutique ratio means we have the bandwidth to learn your practice properly.
How does a Bendigo-based team service a Perth practice?
Anaesthetic billing is asynchronous by nature — operating lists arrive, claims go out, exceptions get worked through. None of it requires the team to be in the same building as you. Our service is fully cloud-based, our account managers reach you by phone, email, and the practice software, and we already work this way with anaesthetists across every state. The Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane anaesthetists who use us aren't co-located with our Bendigo office either — the model has been running this way for over a decade. The only thing distance changes is which surgical rooms we contact.
Doesn't the time difference make this difficult?
It actually works in your favour. Our team is on shift Mon–Fri 9–5 AEST — which is 7am–3pm AWST in Western Australian winter, and 6am–2pm AWST during eastern daylight time. By the time most Perth anaesthetists arrive at theatre, we're already taking calls and processing the previous day's lists. Email us before bed; the work is often done by the time you wake up. For anything genuinely time-critical, your account manager's direct line is always available.
Which Perth private hospitals will you cover for me?
Whichever ones you work in. Perth's private hospital landscape is more concentrated than the eastern capitals — St John of God dominates the metropolitan area with Subiaco, Murdoch, Mount Lawley, and Midland, alongside Hollywood Private (Nedlands), Mount Hospital, Bethesda, Joondalup Health Campus, Glengarry Private, and Attadale Private. When you join us, we contact each room you work with, introduce ourselves, and build the relationship before your first list. The list above is a starting point — not exhaustive. Day surgery centres, specialist surgical clinics, and regional WA sites are all in scope.
What does anaesthetic billing cost in Perth?
Anaesthetic billing in Perth costs 4.5% of collected revenue, plus GST, with Fast Tracking. There are no setup fees, no exit fees, no software charges, and no minimum monthly fee. The same rate as everywhere else we work — Perth isn't priced differently. The full breakdown, including what's covered in the rate and what isn't, is on our pricing page.
Do you handle HBF and the WA-specific health funds?
Yes. HBF, Bupa, Medibank, HCF, NIB, AHM, GMHBA, and the smaller restricted-access funds are all handled through ECLIPSE the same way nationally. Our account managers train specifically on each fund's anaesthetic claims quirks — including how HBF processes time-based items, ASA modifier 25000/25005, and the gap-cover arrangements that vary fund-to-fund. Over 99% of our claims are accepted on first submission, including HBF.
Can you handle multi-site practice across Perth metro?
Yes — multi-site practice is exactly where the rooms-direct model earns its keep. Whether you're rotating across St John of God Subiaco, Hollywood Private, and Mount Hospital, or across Murdoch, Bethesda, and a south-of-river day surgery, we contact each room individually. You don't email us your lists; the rooms do. The more sites you work, the more value the rooms-direct service delivers.
How do I switch from my current Perth billing service?
Switching takes about a week, with no gap in collections. You give us a single point of contact at your current provider; we coordinate the transfer of your patient records, Informed Financial Consents, and any in-flight claims. Most anaesthetists are fully migrated within five business days. Free migration is included as standard. If you're currently doing your own billing rather than using a service, the transition is even simpler — we work with you to get the records imported and start handling lists from a chosen cut-off date.
