***IMPORTANT CHANGES TO BILLING POLICY***

 

Dear Patients,

​

It is with regret we inform you that after 32 years of being an exclusively bulk billing practice we are unable to continue this in the long term.

Medicare rebates have been static for 13 years and with increasing costs, we are unable to sustain our preferred method of billing.

As of the 12th of December 2022 we are changing to a MIXED BILLING PRACTICE.

We have tried to avoid this and are probably the last major practice in the area to do this.

​

The general consultation fees will be as follows (Further fee information is below):

​

• Monday to Friday 8am – 6pm patients will be charged the full amount of their consult at the visit - $49.75, Medicare will send them a rebate of $39.75 and patients will be charged a gap of $10.00.

(Concession, pension card holders + children 16 and under will still be Bulk Billed)

​

• Monday to Friday 6pm – 8pm ALL PATIENTS will be charged the full amount of their consult at the visit - $59.75 , Medicare will send them a rebate of $39.75 and patients will be charged a gap of $20.00.

​

• Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays ALL PATIENTS will be charged the full amount of their consult (Amounts vary - see below) at the visit, Medicare will send them a rebate (Amounts vary - see below) and patients will be charged a gap of $20.00.

• ​

• New patients:    a gap fee charge of $20 will apply to initial consult

​

​

When booking your appointment ask our friendly staff how much you will be charged for your consult.

​

ALL CARE PLANS, HEALTH ASSESSMENTS AND MEDICATION REVIEWS WILL BE BULK BILLED ANY TIME OF THE WEEK.

 

The full amount of your consult will need to be paid upfront on the day and you will receive the Medicare rebate within 24 hours of paying your account.
