BILLING & FEES

Billing

This is a private billing practice.

Fee Schedule

A standard consultation is $95.00 and the Medicare rebate is $42.85. The gap to be paid by non bulk bill patients is $52.15.  Accounts are to be paid in full a the time of consultation. Your Medicare rebate can be paid into your bank account instantly using your savings or cheque accounts.

 

Patients with a Health Care Card, Aged Care Pension Card, Disability Pension Card or a Commonwealth Seniors Heath Card pay a reduced scale of fees.

 

  • A standard appointment is 15 minutes to address a single query.

 

  • If you have more than one query or the matter is complicated, or you are having a Mental Health Plan or you are a new patient with a medical history unknown to us, you should book a longer 30-minute appointment.

 

  • We ask that you try to observe the one appointment, one problem ethos. We strive to deal with each medial problem to the highest standard and this proves to be impossible if the Doctors are asked to deal with a number of problems in the one appointment slot. Please also note that the appointment is for you only.

 

Requesting the appropriate length Consultation at the time of booking, will assist us in running to time, ensuring shorter waiting times.

 

Please do not be offended if the Doctor asks you to rebook for your other problems if you have not booked the appropriate length appointment. We are working in your best interests to keep you safe.

 

Payment can be made by cash, cheque, Eftpos or Visa. Diners Club, Mastercard and American Express are not accepted.
