If you have a planned admission, you will receive admission paperwork from your Doctor's rooms. Please ensure you complete the forms and return them to South Eastern Private Hospital.
Where possible, we require your admission forms one week prior to your admission date. This is important so that we can confirm your hospital booking.
For medical patients transferring from another facility, where possible you will be assessed by our Clinical Assessor to ensure suitability to services provided by the hospital. A number of information brochures about South Eastern Private, our facilities and programs will also be provided at this time.
Prior to your admission, please contact our admissions staff to verify your insurance and any out-of-pocket expenses you may incur from your hospital stay. Our staff are happy to answer any questions you may have about costs and insurance coverage. You may also wish to check with your health fund if you have any concerns.
It is important that you contact our admissions staff by calling 03 9549 6327 the day before your scheduled admission to confirm your admission details.
