Do you currently work with anaesthetists in Hobart?
Not yet — and we'd rather say so plainly than imply otherwise. Fast Tracking is a Bendigo-based boutique anaesthetic billing service, founded in 2018, and we don't currently have any Tasmanian anaesthetists on our books. We'd like to change that. The same service we deliver to specialists in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia is on offer here — direct list collection from your surgical rooms, IFCs sent 7 days before surgery, invoices within 48 hours of your codes, a named Account Manager, and the same rate of 4.5% + GST of what we collect.
How can a Bendigo-based service handle Hobart billing?
The same way it handles billing for anaesthetists interstate — remotely. List collection happens via direct relationships with your Hobart surgical rooms, not in person. Patient communication is handled by phone and email. Claims, follow-up and rejections all happen centrally from our Bendigo office. Distance doesn't change the service — what matters is that someone is doing it properly.
Which Hobart private hospitals would you cover?
Whichever ones you work in. The major private surgical sites in Hobart include Calvary Lenah Valley Hospital, Calvary St John's in South Hobart, Hobart Private Hospital on Argyle Street, and Hobart Day Surgery. We'd build the relationship with each surgical room you operate in before your first list with us. If you work in a smaller day surgery or specialist consulting room not on that list, we'd build that relationship too — same process.
What are your hours in Hobart time?
9am to 5pm Hobart time, Monday to Friday, all year. Tasmania keeps the same clock as Victoria, including daylight saving, so our Bendigo office hours are your local hours with no conversion. Your Account Manager answers in those hours, and you can book a 15-minute call or send a message at any time.
Do you cover Launceston?
Yes, we’d be glad to. Launceston’s private surgical work centres on Calvary St Vincent's and St Luke's, and we’d look after you there exactly as we would in Hobart: lists collected direct from your rooms, IFCs 7 days before surgery, invoices within 48 hours of your codes, and the same 4.5% + GST rate.
What does anaesthetic billing cost in Hobart?
Anaesthetic billing in Hobart 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 — Hobart isn't priced differently. The full breakdown is on our
pricing page.
Are you looking to take on Tasmanian anaesthetists generally?
Yes — particularly in Hobart, Launceston, and the North-West Coast. Boutique by design means we grow deliberately rather than chase volume, but Tasmania is somewhere we'd genuinely like to build a presence. Whether you're in early private practice, considering switching providers, or just exploring options — we'd be happy to talk.

How do I switch from my current Hobart billing arrangement?
Switching? Pick a cut-over date. Your previous biller keeps following up the claims it has already lodged; we'd bill everything from your first list with us, so nothing is billed twice. There is no setup fee and no minimum term.
