How does payment work if I am self-funding patient?
If you are self funding, a deposit invoice will be issued once the booking is confirmed. This deposit is payable by the 20th week of pregnancy and the final balance will be invoiced before your delivery. Our team will guide you through the timeline and provide payment support as needed.
Do you accept private health insurance?
Yes, we work with most major insurers. We recommend contacting them to obtain a pre-authorisation code and letter of guarantee for your care. We advise you to check that the policy covers both our fees and the hospital fees. If your insurance offers limited maternity cover, we recommend using this towards your hospital fees at Portland. You will still be invoiced as a self funding patient for Obstetric care. We will provide all the necessary documentation to help you claim reimbursement from your insurer for any eligible amount.
Do I need a GP referral?
No. GP referral is not required to book an appointment with us. You can self-refer by contacting our clinic directly.
Do you support natural birthing and hypnobirthing?
Yes. We fully support natural birth choices including water birth and hypnobirthing. We work closely with experienced midwives trained in holistic and gentle birthing approaches.
