Schedule 1 item 314 of the Health Insurance Legislation Amendment (Section 3C General Medical and Diagnostic Imaging Services – Medicare Indexation) Determination 2021 instructs to omit “53.35” and substitute “55.85” in column 3 of item 82224 of Schedule 2.
The fee of “53.35” does not appear in column 3 of item 82224 of Schedule 2. However, the fee of “55.35” does appear.
This compilation was editorially changed to omit “55.35” and substitute “55.85” in column 3 of item 82224 of Schedule 2 to give effect to the misdescribed amendment as intended.
