The booking for your hospital stay will be made through your Doctor’s rooms, or as a referral directly from another hospital.
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 rehabilitation patients transferring from another facility, where possible you will be assessed by our Rehabilitation Assessor to ensure suitability with our hospital programs. You will also be provided with several information brochures about South Eastern Private Rehabilitation, our facilities and programs 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. If you have any concerns, we recommend you speak to your health fund.
It is important that you call our admissions staff on 03 9549 6555 the day before your scheduled admission, to confirm your admission details.

On admission to hospital, you’ll be asked about the medications you are currently taking, and whether you have had any unexpected reactions or allergies to medications in the past. If so, these will be noted on your medication chart.
