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

i.

Direct from your Adelaide rooms.

We contact every surgical room you work with — from Calvary Adelaide to St Andrew's to Burnside — and build the relationship ourselves. Your lists come to us every week (you can still send them yourself if you prefer). 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 named Account Manager.

Every Adelaide anaesthetist we look after has a named Account Manager who learns how they practise. When you phone, you speak to the person who handles your billing day to day.

Adelaide is a smaller capital — and a closely connected one.

SA's private anaesthetic community is tightly knit. Reputation travels — including the standards of your administration.

Adelaide private practice has a strong group-practice tradition. Many anaesthetists work through one of the established SA groups; others practise independently. Either way, the surgical rooms are concentrated — Calvary Adelaide and St Andrew's in the CBD, Calvary North Adelaide and the Memorial in North Adelaide, Burnside in the inner east, Flinders Private at Bedford Park, Ashford to the south. Many SA specialists work several of these in a week, and some add a regional list.

A common approach is to ask the anaesthetist to email or upload their lists each week. We do the work ourselves. When you join us, you tell us which Adelaide 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. The coordination stops being your problem.

For SA group practices: one process across the whole group, with individual reporting for each anaesthetist, so every member still sees their own invoiced, paid and outstanding figures. Groups collecting over about $200,000 a month get a custom rate, typically below 4.5%.

Hospitals and surgical centres we cover for Adelaide anaesthetists.

The Adelaide anaesthetists we look after work across the major private hospitals and day surgery centres in metropolitan SA, including:

  • Calvary Adelaide HospitalAdelaide CBD
  • St Andrew's HospitalAdelaide
  • Calvary North Adelaide HospitalNorth Adelaide
  • The Memorial HospitalNorth Adelaide
  • Burnside HospitalToorak Gardens
  • Flinders Private HospitalBedford Park
  • Ashford HospitalAshford
  • Plus day surgery centresEastern Suburbs · Inner South · Adelaide Hills

If you work somewhere we don't yet cover, we'll build the relationship with that surgical room before your first list. That's part of the service — not an extra.

Anaesthetic billing for regional South Australia.

We're a regional business ourselves — our office is in Bendigo — and we bill for regional anaesthetists the same way we do in the capitals. Wherever you practise in country SA, distance doesn't change the service: lists come to us from the rooms and claims are lodged electronically. If your lists cross into western Victoria from Mount Gambier, see anaesthetic billing in regional Victoria.

If you split your work between metro Adelaide and a regional centre, we'd like to hear from you. The service is identical to what we provide in Adelaide — direct relationships with your surgical rooms, a named Account Manager who learns how you practise, the same 4.5% + GST rate. The only difference is which surgical rooms we'd be building relationships with on your behalf.

If you're in private practice anywhere in regional South Australia, we'd genuinely like to talk.

A team built around the Account Manager model — for SA's close-knit market.

Account management from Bendigo. Erin Wilson (Practice Manager), Hannah O’Hanlon and Jamie Hamilton (Account Managers) work from our Bendigo office, wherever you practise.

Billing can easily become a queue: claims go in, claims come out, nobody knows your practice. Fast Tracking runs differently. Every Adelaide anaesthetist we look after has a named Account Manager — a real person with the time and training to actually learn how they practise. Which surgeons they cover. Which Adelaide rooms run late. Which patients are repeat. Which regional list runs once a month.

Our Account Managers are anaesthetic-billing specialists, not generalists. They quality-check every claim before submission — catching missed modifiers, time-unit errors, and sequencing issues — and know the anaesthetic MBS rules, DVA and PHI claim handling, and the quirks of how individual health funds process anaesthetic claims. In a new client's first fortnight, every claim is also checked by a senior biller.

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

How our anaesthetic billing service compares to typical alternatives.

Adelaide anaesthetists who talk to us usually bill through an in-house admin team at a group practice, a smaller SA operator, or a national agency. Here are the questions worth asking of any option.

Fast Tracking
Typical alternative
Pricing 4.5% + GST of what we collect; no setup or software fees Check the rate basis and any setup or monthly fees
List collection Direct from your rooms, every week Often you upload your lists each week
Account manager Named, anaesthetic-trained Ask who you'll actually speak to
Switching Pick a cut-over date; your old biller finishes its own claims Check for exit fees and minimum terms
Rejected claims Followed up weekly Ask how often rejections are chased

Switching from another biller? Here's how the handover works.

Switching? Pick a cut-over date. Your previous biller keeps following up the claims it has already lodged; we bill everything from your first list with us, so nothing is billed twice. Ask them for final reports and keep portal access until those claims settle.

Onboarding usually takes 5–10 business days, plus health-fund processing. There's no setup fee for switching, and no minimum term once you're on board. How switching works →

What our anaesthetists say.

A note on transparency: we haven’t attributed the testimonial below to a South Australian practice, and we won’t put an Adelaide label on someone else’s words. What it describes is the service you’d receive in SA, as anywhere else we work.

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 Adelaide.

Do I need to be in Adelaide to work with you?
No — our Adelaide anaesthetic billing service is delivered remotely from our team in Bendigo, Victoria. We work with anaesthetists across every Australian capital and regional centre. The service is identical wherever you're based — what changes is the surgical rooms we build relationships with on your behalf. Contact us to talk it through.
Which Adelaide private hospitals do you cover?
The Adelaide anaesthetists we look after work at hospitals and day surgery centres including Calvary Adelaide Hospital (CBD), St Andrew's Hospital (Adelaide), Calvary North Adelaide, the Memorial (North Adelaide), Burnside Hospital (Toorak Gardens), Flinders Private (Bedford Park) and Ashford Hospital, plus the major day surgery centres. If you join us and work somewhere we haven't dealt with before, we'll build the relationship with that surgical room before your first list. The list above includes the major sites — it isn't exhaustive.
What are your hours in Adelaide time?
8:30am to 4:30pm Adelaide time, Monday to Friday, all year. Our office keeps 9am to 5pm Melbourne time, and because South Australia and Victoria start and end daylight saving on the same dates, the half-hour difference never changes. Your Account Manager answers in those hours, and you can book a 15-minute call.
What does anaesthetic billing cost in Adelaide?
Anaesthetic billing in Adelaide 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 — Adelaide isn't priced differently. The full breakdown is on our pricing page.
Can you handle metro Adelaide and regional SA in one practice?
Yes. Many SA anaesthetists combine several Adelaide rooms with one or more country lists. Because we deal with each surgical room individually and collect your lists from each one weekly, rather than asking you to upload them yourself, working across several sites doesn't add to your admin.
How do I switch from my current Adelaide billing service?
Switching? Pick a cut-over date. Your previous biller keeps following up the claims it has already lodged; we bill everything from your first list with us, so nothing is billed twice. There is no setup fee and no minimum term. How switching works.
