    Ultrasounds by referral

    An ultrasound by referral means that your midwife will refer you for an ultrasound. A number of reasons can present themselves during your pregnancy.  Examples of ultrasounds by referral are the dating, the 13 weeks ultrasounds and the 20 week ultrasounds. Examples of ultrasounds on medical indication are the growth and the placental location ultrasounds. These types of ultrasounds are all covered by your health insurance.

    Fees

    The fees for ultrasounds by referral have been determined on a national basis.  These fees however are subject to change. The majority of health insurance providers will accept a direct claim from Focus Midwifery Centre for the cost of an ultrasound by referral.   If your health insurance provider does not accept a direct claim, you initially pay the fee yourself and then submit the invoice to your insurer. 

    The 13 week ultrasound, 20 week ultrasound as well as the dating and medical indication ultrasounds are covered by the basic insurance policy.
