Mantaray - Absolutely right - I just went to the Family Planning Clinic today. They do all the education, pap checks and insertion right there. Only if you have prior complications/worries they send you to get an ultrasound.
I think all up it will cost me only $30.
I got script from GP, cost $30 for Mirena (PBS).
The Family Planning Clinic can insert them, 2 aptmts needed: councelling session ($0) then insertion ($30).
Also gynae's or day surgeries do it.
I had it done at a day surgery (no referral necessary, rang them on Tue, got in on Thu) where they do other types of birth control & it cost $215, only 1 visit, & would get $120 back from Medicare, but coz met safety net for this calendar year I got about $190 back.
