All simple (punch or shave) biopsies incur a gap fee (i.e. after the Medicare rebate is applied) of $199 for up to three simple biopsies and $259 for more than three lesions.

Excisional biopsies are done on a separate procedural list - please see Skin Lesion Removal for pricing.

Gap fees (i.e. after the Medicare rebate is applied) for skin lesion removals range from approximately $319-449 depending on the skin lesion location, size and procedure complexity. Please note the gap fee portion is not claimable from Medicare.

Your doctor will be able to give you a detailed estimate at your consultation.

• $319-339 for simple excisions - excision sites on arms, trunk, upper legs (excluding wide local excisions).

• $429-449 for complex excisions - all other sites (i.e. head, neck, lower legs, hands, digits, or a wide local excision).

• an additional gap fee of $629-649 will be incurred for all procedures requiring reconstructive surgery techniques such as skin grafts or flaps.

These fees include all consumables, post-procedural aftercare, a post-procedural aftercare pack to take home, nursing care and removal of sutures.

Cryotherapy (freezing) of actinic keratoses if performed at the same time as a skin check appointment will be included in the cost of the appointment. 

Freezing of non-cancerous lesions incurs a gap fee as a Medicare rebate does not apply (please refer to Cosmetic Mole Removal).

Our “gap” fees are capped at $60-85 for a results review appointment if requiring an external referral, an extensive discussion of treatment options, or prescription of topical treatment options. This include all telehealth appointments.

Our independent pathology provider is Clinipath. Medicare card holders are generally bulk billed for pathology examinations of specimens. Non-Medicare card holders please see the Overseas or Non-Medicare section below.

Unfortunately if you are not covered by Medicare (the Australian health care funding scheme) there will be no Medicare rebate applied to the cost of your consultation or treatment. Full private fees apply.

We are unable to provide exact quotes for consultations or procedures due to the amount of varying Medicare item numbers involved.

As a guide:

• Please allow at least $400 for consultation fees and associated minor procedures that can occur on the day (e.g. cryotherapy, biopsies).

• Please allow at least $700 for a simple skin excision, to at least $1400 for a complex skin excision excision.

Independent pathology laboratories will also charge a fee for histopathological examination of the specimen at the laboratory. Please allow at least $400 for this service, which will be invoiced by the pathology service separately.

Occasionally, some skin specimens require extended testing with additional costs incurred as a result.

Tax invoices for our services can be provided to supply to you or your insurer. Please check directly with your insurer regarding their claims policies.
