Bariatric Surgery Payment Options

We know that covering the cost of weight loss surgery can be a challenge. Some patients can use their Superannuation to cover part or all of the costs if they have the funds available.


This requires patients to apply via the ATO and MyGov websites requesting an early release of funds. Patients will need supporting letters, reports and documentation that our practice can supply to help with that process. You will also need supporting documentation from your GP.


More information about the early release of Super funds is available via the ATO Website.


Please note we can't guide you on this decision or give you financial advice on the best option for you – but we believe having information on all possible options is best.
