(5) The procedures for transferring aged persons between The Canberra Hospital and Calvary Hospital and other facilities in New South Wales depend on the patient's needs and the type of facility to which the patient is transferred. Patients transported from one hospital to another are transported by ambulance. Ambulance transport of ACT residents to NSW hospitals for treatment not available in the ACT is free of charge to the patient, but charged to the hospital. NSW hospitals are responsible for the cost of NSW residents requiring interstate ambulance transport and the hospital is responsible for the cost of ACT residents requiring interstate ambulance transport.
