FAQI am not over 70 but I am interested in a bone density scan! Am I eligible for bulk-billing? For patients that are under 70, if you have a pre-existing medical condition such as: a minimal trauma fracture; early onset of menopause; chronic liver or renal disease; rheumatoid arthritis (to name a few), you would be eligible to have a bulk-billed scan every 12 to 24 months depending.
