Mixed billing is a payment model where patients are required to pay a 'gap payment' for appointments. This means that patients will be responsible for paying the difference between the practice's private fee and the amount reimbursed by Medicare. While this model applies to most patients, some may still be eligible for bulk billing and will not be required to pay any out-of-pocket expenses.
Access to healthcare is very important to us. Therefore, certain patients will continue to be bulk billed
We kindly request all patients to bring their valid Medicare card and a debit card to process the payments. You will be charged the full consultation fee to your debit card at the end of your appointment. Full payment of your account is required on the day of consultation.
We then process your Medicare rebate on the spot, for which we will require your physical Medicare card. The rebate should appear in your bank account within 1-2 business days. We recommend that you ensure your bank details are up to date on my.gov.au to avoid any delays in receiving your rebate.
If you do not bring in your Medicare card along, then unfortunately we will not be able to process your rebate. In that case, you will need to pay in full, we give you the receipt and you will need to claim the rebate yourself online.
Please refer to our UPDATED FEES SCHEDULE to see what charges will apply
Our reception staff will always try to give you the most accurate advice possible about the costs of your appointment ahead of time. However, please keep in mind that the reception staff will only be able to offer you advice based on the information you provide and that your type of consultation may vary in your appointment.
Key indicators that will change the cost of your appointment include the length (time) of your appointment, how many issues you discuss with the doctor, and whether there is a procedure involved in your appointment. We have tried our best to keep the gap payment as consistent as possible across all appointment types so that patients do not experience too much variation.
