Note: Section 12 of the Private Health Insurance (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2007 deals with the listing of a prosthesis that was a no gap prosthesis or a gap permitted prosthesis for the purposes of the National Health Act 1953 immediately before the commencement of the Act.
(b)rule 6 sets out the method for working out the minimum benefit and maximum benefit for hospital treatment, covered under a complying private health insurance policy, that is the provision of a listed prosthesis in circumstances where:
(i)a medicare benefit is payable in respect of the professional service associated with the provision of the prosthesis; or
(ii)the provision of the prosthesis is associated with podiatric treatment by an accredited podiatrist; and
(c)rule 7 sets out the method for working out the minimum benefit and maximum benefit for hospital-substitute treatment, covered under a complying private health insurance policy, that is the provision of a listed prosthesis in circumstances where a medicare benefit is payable in respect of the professional service associated with the provision of the prosthesis.
Benefits for prostheses provided as part of hospital treatment
(1) For a no gap prosthesis provided as part of an episode of hospital treatment by a private hospital in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 5(b), the minimum benefit and the maximum benefit are each the amount for that prosthesis listed in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Minimum Benefit’.
(2) For a gap permitted prosthesis provided as part of an episode of hospital treatment by a private hospital in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 5(b):
(a)the minimum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Minimum Benefit’; and
(b)the maximum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Maximum Benefit’.
(3) For a no gap prosthesis provided as part of an episode of hospital treatment by a public hospital in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 5(b):
(a)the minimum benefit is the lesser of the following amounts:
(i)the amount for that prosthesis listed in the column under the heading ‘Minimum Benefit’ in the Schedule; or
(ii)the amount of the insured person’s liability to the public hospital for that prosthesis; and
(b)the maximum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis listed in the column under the heading 'Minimum Benefit'.

(ii)the amount of the insured person’s liability to the public hospital for that prosthesis; and
(b)the maximum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis listed in the column under the heading ‘Maximum Benefit’ in the Schedule.
Benefits for prostheses provided as part of hospital-substitute treatment
(1) For a no gap prosthesis provided as part of an episode of hospital-substitute treatment in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 5(c) the minimum benefit and the maximum benefit are each the amount for that prosthesis listed in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Minimum Benefit’.
(2) For a gap permitted prosthesis provided as part of an episode of hospital-substitute treatment in the circumstances mentioned in paragraph 5(c):
(a)the minimum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Minimum Benefit’; and
(b)the maximum benefit is the amount for that prosthesis in the column in the Schedule under the heading ‘Maximum Benefit’.

Timing of applications to have a prosthesis listed
As a matter of normal administrative practice, applications made under subsection 72-10 (2) of the Act will be considered after they have been received and, if the Minister decides to grant the application, the prosthesis will be listed in the Schedule the next time the Minister makes or varies the Rules.
Note 1: Under subsection 72-10 (5) of the Act the Minister must list the kind of prosthesis, set out the minimum benefit and, if the Minister considers it appropriate, the maximum benefit for the prosthesis in these Rules on the next occasion that the Minister makes or varies the Rules after he or she grants an application and the applicant has paid to the Commonwealth any initial listing fee within 14 days of being informed of the Minister's decision to grant the application.
Note 2: Under subsection 72-15 (3) of the Act, the Minister may remove a prosthesis from the list in the Rules if the applicant fails to pay an ongoing listing fee.
9. Minister may have regard to recommendations and advice
(1) In making the decision under subsection 72-10 of the Act, the Minister may have regard to a recommendation from the Prostheses and Devices Committee.
(2) In setting the minimum and the maximum (if any) amounts for a prosthesis, the Minister may have regard to the amounts as negotiated between the Prostheses and Devices Negotiating Group and the applicant.

Each loop of the helix is connected to the balloon diameters between

stent surface is fully coated with a layer
of amorphous hydrogen-rich silicon
carbide (aSiC:H). This material has
semiconducting properties that efficiently
prevent the electron transfer from
fibrinogen to the metal surface in vitro.
Thereby the conversion from fibrinogen
to fibrin and it's depoisition at the stent
surface is reduced. Additionally, aSiC:H -
coated stents exhibit a lower adhesion
and activation of blood platelets and
leucocytes. Finally, the release of
potentially allergenic ions from a silicon
carbide coated stent is substantially
reduced in comparison to an uncoated
metal stent3. This coating is used on all

GT223 Helex 1.5 Septal Occluder The GORE HELEX Septal Occluder Diameters: 15, 20, 25, 30 and $10,200.00
consists of an implantable endoprosthesis 35mm
and a catheter delivery system. The
Occluder is comprised of a nickel-
titanium (Nitinol) wire frame covered
with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene
(ePTFE). The ePTFE is treated with a
hydrophilic coating to facilitate
echocardiographic imaging of the
Occluder during implantation. When fully
deployed, the Occluder assumes a double
disc configuration that bridges the septal
defect to precent shunting of blood
between the right and left atria (Figure 1a,
b). The delivery system consists of
three distal co-axial components
transitioning to a parallel component
arrangement at the proximal Y-arm hub: a
10 Fr Green Delivery Catheter, a Gray
Control Catheter and a Tan Mandrel
(Figure 2). The proximal end of the
Conotrol Catheter exits the Y-arm hub
and is terminated by a Red Retrieval Cord
Cap. The proximal end of the Mandrel
exits the side port of the Y-arm hub and
is terminated by a Clear Leur. The
Control Catheter is equipped with a
retrieval cord if Occluder repositioning or
retrieval is deemed necessary (Figure 2).
