Anaesthetic Billing Service · Perth & WA

Perth anaesthetic billing service — taking on our first WA anaesthetists.

Fast Tracking is taking on its first Perth anaesthetists. You'd get the same service our eastern-states anaesthetists get: lists collected, IFCs 7 days before surgery, invoices within 48 hours of your codes and weekly rejection follow-up, for 4.5% + GST of what we collect. Phones open 6am–2pm Perth time during eastern daylight saving, 7am–3pm otherwise.

You'd stay in theatre. We'd do the rest.

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

i.

Direct from your Perth rooms.

We would 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 would come to us every week (you could still send them yourself if you prefer). You wouldn't be the courier of your own data.

ii.

One transparent rate.

4.5% + GST of what we collect — the same rate everywhere we work. No setup, exit or software fees, and nothing on rejected claims. See pricing →

iii.

A named Account Manager.

Every Perth anaesthetist who joins us would have a named Account Manager — a real person with the time to actually learn how they practise. When you phone, you'd speak to the person who handles your billing day to day.

Perth's private practice is concentrated and relational.

Perth's private health landscape is built on long-running relationships.

A Perth anaesthetist's metropolitan week often includes St John of God sites — Subiaco, Murdoch, Midland — alongside Hollywood Private, Mount Hospital, Joondalup, and Bethesda. The work is in depth of relationship with each room.

That suits a boutique billing service. We deal with each surgical room individually. When you join us, you'd tell us which Perth rooms you work with. We'd contact each one, introduce ourselves, and build the relationship. From that point on, your lists would come directly to us every week. The kind of attention you'd expect from a service founded by a colleague.

HBF and WA gap arrangements

In Western Australia, HBF runs its own Medical Gap Agreement rather than Access Gap Cover. Anaesthetists either bill no gap at HBF’s schedule, or opt out, in which case HBF pays up to the MBS fee only — there has been no known-gap option with HBF in WA since 1 October 2023. Outside WA, HBF uses AHSA Access Gap Cover, so a Perth fee schedule can’t simply copy an eastern-states one.

When you join, we’d register you with HBF and the other funds you want and set up your gap scheme elections at no extra cost. WA workers compensation claims (WorkCover WA) are paid at AMA rates, and we’d set those up too.

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 Midland Private HospitalMidland
  • Hollywood Private HospitalNedlands
  • Mount HospitalPerth CBD
  • Bethesda HospitalClaremont
  • Joondalup Health CampusJoondalup
  • Glengarry Private HospitalDuncraig
  • South Perth HospitalSouth Perth
  • Waikiki Private HospitalWaikiki
  • Peel Health CampusMandurah
  • 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 doesn't change the service.

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 interstate anaesthetists we already look after aren't co-located with us either.

The time zone can work in your favour. Our phones are open Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm Melbourne time (6am–2pm Perth time during eastern daylight saving, 7am–3pm otherwise). By the time most Perth anaesthetists arrive in theatre, we'd already be taking calls and working on the previous day's lists.

Anaesthetic billing for regional WA.

We're a regional business ourselves — our office is in Bendigo. For anaesthetists in Bunbury, Albany, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, the South West, and the Wheatbelt, distance wouldn't change the service: lists come to us from the rooms and claims are lodged electronically.

The service we'd offer regional WA is identical to what we'd offer Perth metro. 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 — 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.

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

Pick a cut-over date: your previous biller (or you, if you bill yourself) keeps following up the claims already lodged, and we'd bill everything from your first list with us, so nothing is billed twice. Onboarding usually takes 5–10 business days, plus health-fund processing. There's no setup fee and no minimum term. How switching works →

What our anaesthetists say.

A note on transparency: the testimonial below is from an anaesthetist 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 this testimonial describes is the service you'd receive in WA, 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 Perth.

Do you currently look after Perth anaesthetists?
Not yet — Fast Tracking is taking on its first Perth anaesthetists. You’d get the same service our eastern-states anaesthetists get: lists collected, IFCs 7 days before surgery, invoices within 48 hours of your codes and weekly rejection follow-up. The only thing new is which Perth surgical rooms we’d be building relationships with on your behalf. New to private practice? See what we set up for new independents, or contact us to talk it through.
Doesn’t the time difference make this difficult?
No. Our phones are open 6am–2pm Perth time during eastern daylight saving and 7am–3pm otherwise, Monday to Friday, so we’d be working before most Perth lists start. More on how distance works is above.
Which Perth private hospitals will you cover for me?
Whichever ones you work in. St John of God has metropolitan hospitals at Subiaco and Murdoch, plus St John of God Midland Private Hospital, alongside Hollywood Private (Nedlands), Mount Hospital, Bethesda, Joondalup Health Campus, Glengarry Private, South Perth Hospital, Waikiki Private and Peel Health Campus. When you join us, we’d 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 and regional WA sites would all be 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 WorkCover WA anaesthetic claims?
Yes. WorkCover WA oversees Western Australia’s workers compensation scheme, which pays anaesthesia at AMA rates and runs separately from Medicare and the health funds. We’d set up your WorkCover WA billing at no extra cost, lodge the claims with the employer’s insurer, and follow up anything rejected or queried every week, as we do for every other payer.
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 claimed through ECLIPSE. In WA, HBF uses its own Medical Gap Agreement: you either bill no gap at HBF’s schedule, or opt out and HBF pays up to the MBS fee only. There has been no known-gap option with HBF in WA since 1 October 2023. We’d register you with the funds and set up your gap scheme elections at no extra cost, and every claim is quality-checked before submission.
Can you handle multi-site practice across Perth metro?
Yes. 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’d contact each room individually and collect your lists from each one weekly, so working across several sites wouldn’t add to your admin.
How do I switch from my current Perth billing service?
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. If you’re doing your own billing now, you finish the claims you’ve lodged and we start from your first list with us. How switching works.
