Sonic HealthPlus

What Sonic HealthPlus does

Sonic HealthPlus is an Australian occupational and community healthcare provider operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sonic Healthcare. The company delivers a comprehensive portfolio of occupational health services — including drug and alcohol screening, employment medicals, executive health evaluations, health monitoring, injury treatment and management, legislative medicals, on-site medical services, and workplace wellness programs — alongside community health services such as women's health, men's health, chronic disease management, mental health, allied health, and GP telehealth consultations. Its core customer base spans mining and resources (e.g., Yancoal, Curragh Qld Mining, Queensland Coal Mine Workers Health Scheme), transport and rail (Metro Trains Melbourne, Vline, rail operators nationally), construction and manufacturing, corporate and enterprise clients, and government agencies (Queensland Fire and Rescue, National Transport Commission).

The company's technical and operational platform includes a proprietary SASS online appointment booking system accessible to clients 24/7, a newly launched Client Portal (September 2024) for centralized communication and results access, and integration with the Queensland Government's ResHealth portal for mandatory coal mine worker health assessments. Sonic HealthPlus operates a national clinical network of over 300 medical practitioners across all eight Australian states and territories, including CBD clinics in six capital cities and remote sites such as Karratha and Mackay, supported by specialist occupational physicians, on-site service delivery, and academic affiliations with University of Queensland, James Cook University, Monash University, and the Wesley Dust Disease Research Centre.

Sonic HealthPlus generates revenue primarily through professional services delivered under multi-year enterprise contracts, with pricing set via per-client quotations rather than public disclosure. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales through a dedicated Business Development Team and relationship managers, inside sales via contact centre operations (1300 763 822 bookings; 1300 793 004 enquiries), and on-site service delivery. Key revenue streams include occupational health services, general practice services, legislative and regulatory medicals (notably QLD Coal Mine Workers Health Scheme and NSW Order 45), and tiered executive health evaluations (Classic, Comprehensive, Premium). The company holds NATA laboratory accreditation and Global Mark certification, and its doctors contribute to national occupational health standards including the 2024 National Standard for Health Assessment of Rail Safety Workers.
