Patients who are 16 and over and do not hold a health care card or a pension card will be privately billed.

FEE SCHEDULE AS OF 1ST JULY 2024

FEES REBATE OUT OF POCKET STANDARD CONSULT <20mins $90 $42.85 $47.15

PROLONGED CONSULT > 40MINS $250 $122.15 $127.85

NEW PATIENTS who book an initial visit with a registrar will be privately charged for the initial visit.

For all other appointments, the registrars will continue to bulk bill all face to face consultations on weekdays (mon-fri)

CANCELLATION POLICY If you miss your appointment or fail to cancel within 2 hrs of your appointment a cancellation fee of $40 will apply

TELEHEALTH CHANGES

As of April 2nd all telehealth will be privately billed.

NEW FEE SCHEDULE STARTING JULY 1ST 2024:

Patients who are under 16, hold a pension or HCC will be charged $75

Patients who are 16 and over who do not hold any concession cards, will be charged $90

The government has frozen GP medicare rebates for many years. If you feel this is not being managed appropriately by the government, please contact your local member.
