Accommodation Costs
Accommodation costs are in line with the Victorian Patient Transport Assistance Scheme (VPTAS) rebate rates. VPTAS provides financial subsidies to eligible patients living in rural and regional Victoria, who need to travel long distances to access medical specialist services.
Our staff can assist you with further information to claim the rebate if you are eligible.
