All of them are on the Australian Government's list of Medicare-eligible MRI locations (last updated 17 February 2026), so a Medicare rebate is possible for scans done there. Whether your scan attracts one depends on the item your referral asks for and on who wrote it — GPs can request a limited set of MRI items and specialists can request more.

Locally, Kingaroy is covered for x-ray, ultrasound and CT. A referral for one of those can be done here: everything Kingaroy has.

To put 91 km in context: of the 1062 QLD towns we hold, 91 are further than Kingaroy from a MRI service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Queensland has 140 MRI practices in total, 71 of them outside the capital. The machines cluster where the population is, which is why the nearest one to Kingaroy is where it is.

Accreditation windows: I-MED Radiology Gympie to 31 October 2027, Gympie Radiology to 30 November 2027 and Cooroy Radiology to 31 May 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the five practices listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and two list opening hours. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.
