Bulk Billing/Private Fees

Our practice is a Mixed Billing practice.

​

We have different billing schedules with our doctors.

A number of our doctors privately bill all appointments.

Those doctors who bulk bill only bulk bill for:

• Patients under 16 years of age

• Patients with a valid pension and concession card

​

If you would like a bulk billing appointment, please discuss this with reception when you book your appointment. 

​

Payment is required at the time of consultation. For most patients we can process a Medicare rebate on your behalf almost immediately. 

Please ask our reception team if you have questions about the billing for your appointment before you attend.

​
