Frequently asked questions
What are travel subsidy forms?
If you live in a rural or remote area and have to travel more than 50km for specialist medical services that are not available locally, you may be eligible for the Patient Travel Subsidy Scheme to help with your travel costs. If you have been referred from another Queensland Health hospital, ask your doctor from your ‘home’ hospital for travel subsidy forms and bring them to your appointment at RBWH.
Can I have a copy of my scans? Who do I ask?
If you would like a copy of your scan report, simply ask the doctor or sonographer at the time of the scan and they will be happy to provide one. If you would like a copy of a scan report from a previous visit, call the Maternal Fetal Medicine Receptionist on (07) 3646 0840 during business hours.
Can a medical certificate be provided for myself and my partner? Who do I ask?
If you would like a medical certificate, simply ask the doctor at the time of your appointment and they will be happy to provide one. If you would like a medical certificate from a previous visit, call the Maternal Fetal Medicine Receptionist on (07) 3646 0840 during business hours.
