Hunter Imaging Group

Hunter Imaging Group — East Maitland runs imaging services from East Maitland Maitland Private Hospital, Se 1 175 Chisholm Rd, East Maitland NSW 2323. The register records it under practice number 893, accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. That accreditation has run since 21 May 2003 and is current 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 13 23 36 and their website. These contact details come from healthdirect's directory rather than the practice itself, so confirm them on the call.

There are two accredited practices in East Maitland; which one suits you is a question of hours, wait and what they charge, not of accreditation.

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