Fast Tracking is a boutique anaesthetic billing service for specialists in private practice — founded in 2013 by a practising anaesthetist. We collect operating lists direct from your surgical rooms, 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.
We contact every surgical room you work with — from Calvary Lenah Valley to Hobart Private to your day-surgery sites — and build the relationship ourselves. Your lists come to us automatically, every week. You're never the courier of your own data.
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.
Every anaesthetist we look after has a dedicated account manager who learns how they practise. The kind of attention that mass-scale anaesthetic billing services structurally can't offer.
Boutique by design isn't marketing. It means deliberate growth, and Tasmania is somewhere we haven't grown yet.
Most billing services that claim "national coverage" mean they have a database that accepts a Tasmanian postcode. They don't have anyone in their team who knows the rhythm of a Calvary list, or who Hobart's surgical room schedulers are by name. We don't have that either — yet. What we do have is the same boutique service we've delivered to specialists in every other capital since 2013, and a practice manager who'd build the Hobart relationships properly, from the first list onwards.
If you're a Hobart anaesthetist reading this, you'd be the first Tasmanian we look after. That's not a disadvantage — it's the opposite. It means we'd build our Hobart workflow around how you practise, rather than slotting you into a pre-existing process designed for someone else's rooms.
Hobart's private surgical landscape is small and concentrated — which is part of why the boutique model fits well. The major private surgical sites in greater Hobart include:
If you work somewhere not on the list above, we'll build the relationship with that surgical room before your first list with us. That's part of the service — not an extra. Public hospital sessional work (Royal Hobart Hospital) is excluded; we only handle billing for your private practice.
The Tasmanian private health landscape extends well beyond Hobart. Launceston anchors the north, with Calvary St Vincent's and St Luke's. The North-West Coast is served from Devonport and Burnie. The case-mix is different from the mainland: orthopaedics, general surgery, and obstetrics carry more of the load, while sub-specialty work tends to be referred south to Hobart.
We'd be glad to talk with anaesthetists anywhere in Tasmania. The service is identical to what we provide everywhere else — direct relationships with your surgical rooms, a dedicated account manager who learns how you practise, the same 4.5% all-inclusive rate. The only thing that varies is which surgical rooms we'd be building relationships with on your behalf.
Whether you're in Hobart, the Huon, Launceston, the North-West, or somewhere quieter on the East Coast — we'd genuinely like to talk.
Most billing services run on a queue: claims go in, claims come out, nobody knows your practice. Fast Tracking runs differently. Every anaesthetist we look after has a dedicated account manager — a real person with the time and training to actually learn how they practise. Which surgeons they cover. Which rooms run late. Which patients are repeat. For a Hobart anaesthetist, that account manager would learn the Calvary list rhythm, the Hobart Private intake patterns, the day-surgery throughput at Hobart Day Surgery — and the surgical-room contacts at each one.
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 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.
Our 4.5% all-inclusive rate covers the entire anaesthetic billing workflow. There are no upgrade tiers, no setup fees, and no surprise invoices.
If you're currently with another billing service — whether that's a Tasmanian operator, a mainland-based agency, or in-house through your practice — 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.
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 for switching, and no minimum term once you're on board.
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.
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.
