Benairnco Pty Ltd

Benairnco Pty Ltd — Gawler South is at 46 Adelaide Rd, Gawler South SA 5118, and it is on the Medicare accreditation register. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 1506, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. That accreditation has run since 28 May 2003 and is current to 30 November 2027.

MRI accredited, not Medicare-listed. This practice has an accredited MRI unit, but it does not appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list. An MRI here may not attract a Medicare rebate. Ask about the out-of-pocket cost before you book.

Phone 08 8525 6200 and their website. These contact details come from healthdirect's directory rather than the practice itself, so confirm them on the call.

It is the only accredited imaging practice in Gawler South that we hold.

The register does not cover it for nuclear medicine and PET, so for those nuclear medicine and PET are both at Radiology SA Elizabeth Vale in Elizabeth Vale, about 17 km away.

The nearest other accredited practice is Jones Radiology-Gawler in Gawler East, about 2 km away. Benson Radiology Playford in Munno Para is the next closest at 9 km. Jones Radiology-Blakeview is 10 km away in Blakeview. A referral is generally not tied to one clinic, so if the wait here is long it is worth asking whether another practice can see you sooner.

What we hold about this site comes from the Medicare LSPN register and healthdirect's directory, plus the practice's own website.

An MRI uses a magnetic field rather than x-rays, and the machines are expensive, so far fewer places have one.
