Fees & Billing

Fees and billing arrangements

We bulk-bill pensioners, healthcare card holders and children 16 years and under.

Individual doctors have the right to choose how they bill and may privately bill. Please check with reception at the time of booking.

Since Medicare began, patient rebates have not kept pace with practice costs. Therefore, it’s necessary to privately charge patients in order to continue to provide a quality service to you and your family.
