This circular is to advise stakeholders that the Prescribed List Excel files are now available on the website.
If you requested the Excel files via email, please note there was a minor change to three Excel files to reflect that 34 billing codes in Part A and one in Part D had their codes changed (as the billing codes were reused):
- Part A – Prescribed List
- Part A – New Prescribed List items
- Part D – General use items
- Part D – New General use items
The XML file was also updated to fix over 100 billing codes that had the first character missing in the PriorBillingCode field.
The Private Health Insurance (Medical Devices and Human Tissue Products) Amendment Rules (No. 1) 2025 were registered on the Federal Register of Legislation on 1 July 2025. The changes to the 35 billing codes will be reflected on the Private Health Insurance (Medical Devices and Human Tissue Products) Amendment Rules (No. 2) 2025 with an effective date of 1 July 2025.
