Hi I am arriving in Melbourne and will be nearly 20 weeks pregnant and need to organise a scan. I won't have a permanent address to register with Medicare immediately (we are staying in hostel til we find somewhere more permanent) and thought maybe I could get a private scan, so can anyone advise on how to do this and how much it would cost?

 

Thanks a million in advance Caroline

Hi

 

I arrived in Melbourne from the UK when I was 18 weeks pregnant in september but had a ascan on medicare. Providing you are eligible for medicare you may not have to have a permanent address. If you do, there are plenty of private hospitals/doctors where you can just pay. I did a quick internet search and came up with these

 

Melbourne Ultrasound for Women

 

COGUS: providing pregnancy ultrasound scan and gynaecological scan in Melbourne

 

But do a search and ring a few places. You don't need a referral from a doctor to go there.

 

Good luck!

 

Sam
