Benson Radiology Modbury Hospital

Benson Radiology Modbury Hospital is an accredited imaging practice at Modbury Public Hospital, 49-51 Smart Rd, Modbury SA 5092. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 1110, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine, with the current accreditation running from 28 May 2003 to 31 July 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 8397 4800 and their website. These contact details come from healthdirect's directory rather than the practice itself, so confirm them on the call.

The practice's own listings mention {'id': 207, 'title': 'CT', 'slug': 'ct'} and {'id': 210, 'title': 'MRI', 'slug': 'mri'}. Those are its words, not the register's, and we show only the ones consistent with what it is accredited for.

This page is assembled from the Medicare LSPN register and healthdirect's directory, plus the practice's own website — if any of it is out of date, the practice is right and we are wrong.

Nuclear medicine uses a small amount of a radioactive tracer, so it needs a licensed department rather than a general imaging room.
