Northern Health (Northern Imaging Victoria) —…

Northern Health (Northern Imaging Victoria) — Jacana is an accredited imaging practice at Broadmeadows Health Service, 35 Johnstone St, Jacana VIC 3047. Practice number 11613 in the Medicare register covers it for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI, with the current accreditation running from 5 October 2023 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 03 8345 5707 and their website. Those details are the ones the practice publishes itself.

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

For nuclear medicine and PET you would need somewhere else: nuclear medicine and PET are both at I-MED Radiology John Fawkner in Coburg, about 9 km away.

New Medical Imaging in Broadmeadows is the closest alternative, 1 km from here. New Medical Imaging Gladstone Park in Gladstone Park is the next closest at 1 km. Platinum Medical Imaging is 3 km away in Dallas. Unless your referral says otherwise you can usually take it wherever suits you.

What we hold about this site comes from the Medicare LSPN register and a hand-verified check, 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.
