How billing works
Referral received
Your referring doctor sends the request and relevant clinical information to TheraMed Nuclear.
Funding confirmed
For medical-aid patients, pre-authorisation is obtained before the study is booked. Private patients receive confirmation of the applicable fee.
Appointment scheduled
Once the study and funding route are confirmed, our team contacts the patient with the appointment and preparation instructions.
Not sure which study applies? The required scan is determined by your referring doctor and confirmed by our nuclear medicine team. Please do not select a study based on price alone.
