Halswellhealth has recently updated its terms of trade.

For many of our patients who pay on the day these changes will have no impact but because they are a change to our existing terms we felt it important to communicate them with our entire enrolled population.

Terms of Trade
• Payment in full is due on the day of your consultation unless you have set up an automatic
payment.
• You are welcome to pay on the day of consultation via internet banking to 12 3191 0058275
00 stating your full name in the particulars field and your chart number (if known) in the
reference field.
• An automatic payment arrangement is a good way of managing the costs of your healthcare.
If you have set up this type of payment arrangement, and wish to cancel it, please let us know
beforehand.
• Accounts that are not settled within 40 days of consultation without prior arrangement will
be charged a $5.00 account management fee

will be passed on to the account holder.

Assistant Practice Manager ([email protected]) to talk about options for you.
