Do you bulk bill?

How can I claim my Medicare rebate?
Medicare rebates can be electronically claimed at the time of payment.
What if I can’t make my appointment?
We require a minimum of 2 hours notice of any cancellation. This allows adequate time to allocate the appointment to another patient seeking medical care. A fee applies to non-attendance or late cancellations.
Is there a nurse attendance fee?
Yes. In the instance where there is a need to see both doctor and nurse, a $70 fee may apply and you will receive a $39.10 Medicare rebate. This excludes Chronic Management Plan and 70+ Health Assessment.
Is there a fee to access repeat scripts and referrals without a consultation?
Yes. An out-of-pocket fee applies for all repeat scripts and referrals requested without a consultation. The request will be referred to the patients’ usual doctor who will assess the request.
This service is provided in exceptional circumstances only.
