Anaesthetic Billing Service · Perth & WA

Taking on our first Perth 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.

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 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, Mount Lawley, 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

HBF is a Western Australian fund, and like every fund it sets its own anaesthetic gap scheme rates and rules, 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. Each claim would then be checked against that fund’s rules before it’s lodged.

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 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.

A team built around the Account Manager model — one person who learns your Perth practice.

Erin Wilson, Hannah O'Hanlon and Jamie Hamilton of Fast Tracking at the Bendigo office
The team that would look after you. 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 Perth anaesthetist who joins us would have a named 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 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 and the quirks of how individual health funds — including HBF — 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.

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'd 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.

If you're doing your own billing now, the same applies: you finish the claims you've lodged, and we start from your first list with us. Onboarding usually takes 5–10 business days, plus health-fund processing. There's no setup fee, and no minimum term once you're on board. 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 several metropolitan sites — 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'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, specialist surgical clinics, 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 runs Western Australia’s workers compensation scheme, with its own fee schedule and approval process, separate 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 handled through ECLIPSE the same way nationally. Our Account Managers know each fund's anaesthetic claims quirks — including how HBF processes time-based items, ASA modifiers, and the gap-cover arrangements that vary fund-to-fund — and every claim is quality-checked before submission. We'd also register you with the funds and set up your gap scheme elections at no extra cost.
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?
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. 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.
