If you are not covered by the centre, you will get some back through medicare. I've just had a $500 bill for DD3 to be knocked out for dental work and I got back just over $200 of it.
My son broke his leg at preschool, apparently a child jumped on his leg. Nobody realised it was broken at the time so I didn't get an ambulance to pick him up until I took him to a medical centre later in the day. I never asked about the centre reimbursing medical fees, mainly because I'm on a pension so haven't recieved any bills or anything for the ambulance, the operation, and the few days in hospital. Thankfully since he was not attending for 5 or 6 weeks, the centre had that reimbursed onto my account so that even though I had paid for them, I had that credit available again to pay for weeks when he was actually attending the centre. They also paid for him to go to a reptile show at the centre that was on while he was in his cast. It wasn't a big expense but it was a nice gesture.
