Pay a Bill
Is pathology testing bulk billed?
In most cases, PathWest pathology tests are covered by Medicare (this is often called ‘bulk billing’). This means you won’t need to pay for your test as long as you have a Medicare card and the test is covered under the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS). Learn more about the tests available under the MBS.
PathWest not only performs tests on our own patients but we’re also a referral laboratory. You might receive a PathWest invoice if your tests are forwarded to us by the pathology provider you’ve visited. In other cases, if we’re unable to perform all the tests requested, we may forward your specimen to an eastern states laboratory and you might incur a bill and transport costs.
