I think it is really going to come down to the gyno that you see and their costs. The fee we paid was $572 (lap done almost 2 years ago now) and because I took the 'quote' to our health fund, they paid the full difference after medicare paid. I also had to pay a $200 'booking fee' to the gyno for arranging my booking with the hospital. The $200 was not refundable from medicare or PHI.
The hospital was around $700 i think. Day stay only. Arrived early in the morning, think it was 6am? and finally checked out around 6-7pm the same night.
Anaethetist was $626. Can't quite remember what our out of pocket was for this. Also had a Dr assisting and their fee was $100.
I then also received a bill from the Pathology place which was $146.
