Fees

We are now a Medicare Bulk Billing Clinic

Our clinic is pleased to announce that we are now a Medicare Bulk Billing Practice, ensuring more accessible and affordable healthcare for our community. This means that eligible Medicare card holders will have their consultation costs billed directly to Medicare, with no out-of-pocket expense for bulk-billed services.

Bulk-Billing Services Include:

We are committed to providing high-quality, patient-centred care, and this transition allows us to continue supporting individuals and families with easier access to essential health services.

Non-Medicare Services

While our clinic proudly offers Medicare Bulk Billing for eligible services, it’s important for patients to know that not all healthcare services are covered under Medicare’s bulk billing incentives. Some services require a private fee because they fall outside the scope of Medicare benefits.

Below are common services not covered under the Medicare Bulk Billing Incentive Scheme:

WorkCover, TAC, and insurance medicals (Assessments requested by employers, insurers, or third parties)
Pre-employment and fitness-to-work medicals
Commercial and private driver’s licence medicals
Cosmetic or non-medically necessary procedures
Travel vaccinations and travel health consultations
Allied health & other non GP services
Procedures like skin excisions

Diagnostic services such as ECGs and pathology
Forms, reports, and letters requested for non-clinical purposes (e.g., school forms, gym cancellation letters, housing reports)
Procedures or services not listed under the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS)
Some specialised tests, pathology, or imaging not eligible for Medicare rebates
Missed appointment fees
Patients without a Medicare number

These services attract a private fee, which will be explained to you before the service is provided. Our goal is to keep your healthcare experience transparent and stress-free. If you’re unsure whether a service is bulk-billable or privately billed, our reception team is always available to assist.

IMPORTANT: Patients without a Medicare care are not eligible for bulkbilled services. All consultations will be a charged private fee. Patients are asked to pay the full amount of their consultation on the day of the visit. With the new Medicare online services available, if you have lodged your bank account details with Medicare, you will receive your rebate within 48 hours. Please ask staff for more details if you haven’t already lodged your details with Medicare or visit the Medicare website.

Any missed appointment attracts a $30 fee for a standard consultation time and a $60 fee for any long consultation.

Medicare consultations

You will be asked to sign a voucher stating the Medicare fee after your consultation.

If you would like a copy of the signed voucher, you will be provided with one. Please understand if we ask to see your current Medicare or concession card. Medicare Online is a cashless system.

Workcover and TAC

As these are not Medicare consultations, they cannot be bulk billed.

Usually, you will need either to pay for your consultation in full, or provide prior agreement from your employer or the TAC to pay for the consultation. Once your claim is established, we will bill the insurer directly whenever your visit is relevant to your claim.
