This typically applies to patients choosing to be treated as private patients in public hospitals, or other situations where daily hospital fees apply under the Health Insurance Act 1973.\n\n**Why it matters:**\nThis determines the out-of-pocket cost that eligible patients pay per day for hospital treatment in SA public hospitals. The federal government updates this amount periodically to reflect changes in hospital costs and policy settings."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa","history":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa/history","analysis":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/determination-of-patient-contribution-under-sub-section-3-1-hib-09-2006-sa/documents"}}
