Assessment, tests and treatment in one place
Who sees you
Specialist Emergency Physicians or Senior Emergency Doctors, supported by emergency-trained nursing staff.
Imaging
X-ray, CT, ultrasound and MRI on site, provided by Imaging Specialists, an independent company. CT is usually reported within 3 hours.
Pathology
Collected on site and tested by Australian Clinical Labs. Most general results are usually available within 2 hours.
If you need a hospital
Emergency and unstable patients are stabilised at SWIFT first, then transferred by ambulance to an appropriate nearby hospital.
SWIFT has arrangements with nearby private hospitals for direct admission to the ward. This depends on bed availability, private health insurance approval and the patient being medically stable. A doctor assesses every patient individually to decide where they should be admitted.

Medicare services are charged at the rebate amount, and you get the Medicare rebate back with a valid Medicare card.
