ACT Hospital Fees Rise By About One Third
Canberra and Woden Valley Hospitals may raise patient charges by around 33 percent from May 1 as ACT policy moves toward aligning with NSW hospital fees. The Canberra Hospital Board cited past government policy to match NSW rates, with NSW public hospitals already increasing fees from March 1. The Queanbeyan Hospital and other facilities face higher costs due to salaries, wages, and equipment, contributing to the subsidy shortfall.
