About our fees

We are a mixed billing practice. Consultation fees will depend on the length and complexity of the consult. Medical consumables associated with the treatment provided will attract a separate fee. All outstanding accounts are to be settled at the time of consultation.

We offer Medicare Online Claiming, so any Medicare Rebate can be paid directly to your bank account immediately, as long as you have a savings account card.

 Changing from Bulk-Billing to Mixed Billing

From 1 January 2022, our bulk-billing policy has changed. Bulk-billing will only be available to children under 16, health care card, pension card and DVA Cardholders for an appointment during regular business hours. For patients outside of these groups, there will be a small out of pocket expense for most consultations. We will continue to bulk-bill all Health Assessment and Chronic Disease Management Plans.

Additional fees

Procedures, such as skin lesion removal, are subject to an additional fee of $40 for treatment room costs.

Mirena insertion fee $189.70, Medicare rebate $79.70, gap payable $110.

Cancellations

Please call us if you cannot attend your appointment.

We work hard to provide our patients with exceptional care. If you cannot attend your appointment, please call us to cancel it so we can make that time available to another patient needing our help.

Please understand that we assign highly trained nurses and doctors for these appointments, and there are many other patients who would appreciate this time. With appropriate notice, we can give your appointment to someone else.

.

Fees for unattended appointments will be charged as follows:

$30.00 fee for a standard appointment (not cancelled within two hours of the scheduled standard appointment time).

$30.00 fee for a Care Plan appointment (not cancelled within 24 hours prior to the appointment).

 The doctors at our clinic are mixed billing

Our bulk-billing policy has changed. Bulk billing will only be available to children under 16 and DVA Cardholders for an appointment during regular business hours. For patients outside of these groups, there will be a small out-of-pocket expense for most consultations. We will continue to bulk-bill all Health Assessment and Chronic Disease Management Plans. This decision has not been made lightly, and is necessary due to the ongoing discrepancy between operating a general practice clinic and low increases to Medicare rebates offered by the Federal Government. A full list of fees is available at Reception. Please speak with our team if you have any questions.
