FOR GPS AND OTHER HEALTH PROVIDERS, I PREFER ELECTRONIC MESSAGING.

I have engaged Service Provider, Prosper Paediatrics to provide and manage the administrative services and consulting facilities I need to help me provide the best clinical care I can.

Prosper Paediatrics provides reception services to my practice. Please contact them about bookings and any other matters. It, through its staff, systems and procedures, will reliably and promptly ensure I am kept informed, see any requests, questions, letters and reports. They take care of the administrative side of things so I am able to concentrate on clinical care.

Prosper Paediatrics and their reception staff prioritise the responsive, sensitive care I want from them for my patients. The company and its staff are experts in private paediatric practice administration, including all relevant aspects of Medicare, NDIS, private health, billing, rebates and all the other aspects of paediatric specialist care for young people

my Neonatal care fee gap schedule:

The gap is the portion of my fees not covered by standard Medicare rebates or, if for admitted care, your health fund’s remittance.

Most families are eligible for substantial additional Medicare Safety Net rebates, which further reduce these standard gaps. Please contact my Accounts or Practice Manager for further information.

The maximum out-of-pocket cost for your account will be $600. ($850 max for twins)

  • This gap may apply where an attendance to your baby is unplanned but necessary and urgent.

  • Families should budget for this in case this kind of attendance is needed.

    Otherwise, if no unplanned attendance is needed during your baby’s stay, your maximum gap will be

    • $500 where initial attendance to baby is at a planned elective procedure (e.g. elective C-section) or

    • $350, where all attendances to your baby after delivery are routine or within normal rounds.

Rebecca was born and raised in South Australia. She studied at the University of Adelaide’s medical school, including a year spent learning in the Barossa Valley. She completed her general paediatric training at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Lyell McEwin Hospital and Port Augusta Hospital before admission as a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians in 2021.

As a proud mother of twin girls, Rebecca understands the challenges that come with parenting young children and navigating the medical system. She is a kind and approachable paediatrician who is passionate about supporting children and their families. From mid-2022 she will be conducting her professional work across her private practice and a public appointment at the Lyell McEwin Hospital.
