Healthcare Facility Licence Fees and Penalties
Definition
State-based licensing requires upfront fees for granting, renewing, and replacing licences, with penalties including minimum 14-day suspensions for unapproved works, halting operations and revenue.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 1,360 fixed grant fee + variable patient-based fees; AUD 255 replacement fee; annual renewal fees scaled by bed capacity[2]; 14-day suspension for unapproved works[3]
- Frequency: Annual renewals; per incident for variations/suspensions
- Root Cause: Manual application processes across multiple state portals; lack of automated reminders for renewals and approvals
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Public health facilities in Australia waste AUD 1,360+ per licence grant and annual renewals on licensing processes. Automation of application tracking and compliance checks eliminates suspension risks.
