All patients not eligible for bulk billing will be privately billed, requiring full payment for services. This includes an out-of-pocket fee in addition to any Medicare rebate.
Payment is required at the time of the appointment via EFTPOS or credit card. WE NO LONGER ACCEPT CASH
Most privately billed consultations are eligible for a Medicare rebate with a valid Medicare card. The total fee, including the gap fee and medicare fee, must be paid on the day. Please bring a savings or cheque account EFTPOS card for immediate rebate processing, as rebates cannot be refunded to credit cards.
Medicare rebates are subject to Medicare regulations and may take 1–2 business days to appear in your account. Ensure your bank details are up-to-date with Medicare to avoid delays.
We offer bulk billing services for:
NO BULK BILLING On WEEKENDS AND PUBLIC HOLDAYS
GAP FEES ARE APPLICABLE FOR ALL PATIENTS-
Patients will be charged the full fee (including a $35 gap fee and the Medicare consultation item fee). An itemized receipt will be provided for those with private insurance. Please contact your insurer for claim details, as we do not handle direct billing for non-Medicare patients.
Medicare rebates are not available for certain consultations, including but not limited to: WorkCover compensation, sports, work-related, medico-legal, insurance assessments, or reports. Please inform reception staff when booking these types of appointments.
Bulk billing is available for children under 16 years, pensioners, concession and DVA card holders
