Eastern Health (Box Hill Hospital)

Eastern Health (Box Hill Hospital) is an accredited imaging practice at Nelson Rd, Box Hill VIC 3128. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 928, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine, with the current accreditation running from 23 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.

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