MBR Health, Mermaid Beach

You will find MBR Health at Oceans Apartments Retail, G 2469 Gold Coast Hwy, Mermaid Beach QLD 4218. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 10217, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI — accredited since 10 October 2020, current to 31 May 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 07 5619 9499 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 Mermaid Beach; which one suits you is a question of hours, wait and what they charge, not of accreditation.

For nuclear medicine and PET you would need somewhere else: the nearest nuclear medicine is Mermaid Molecular Imaging in Mermaid Beach, about 0 km away and the nearest PET is Lumus Imaging Robina Home Hub in Robina, about 6 km away.

The nearest other accredited practice is Mermaid Molecular Imaging in Mermaid Beach, about 0 km away. Queensland X-Ray Broadbeach in Broadbeach is the next closest at 2 km. Australian Ultrasound Specialists Pty Ltd is 2 km away in Miami. 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.

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LSPN register, healthdirect's directory and healthdirect's directory, plus the practice's own website — if any of it is out of date, the practice is right and we are wrong.

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