our fees

Our practice is private billing – that is, there is a fee to pay (out of pocket cost), with Medicare reimbursing part of this. 

 Some people are eligible for bulk-billing (no out of pocket cost).
Weekend fees are at non-concession rates for all patients.
Please see our cancellation policy
Why is there a gap? (link coming soon)

We are cash-free (due to staff safety and infection control benefits)

All non-bulkbilled fees require to be paid in full on the day. Your Medicare rebate can be returned to your bank account immediately if you have your savings card with you*. Otherwise it will return to your account nominated at Medicare within 2 business days. If you have no bank account linked to your Medicare number, then you will have to claim your rebate manually via Medicare Online (MyGov) or in person at a Centrelink office 

*Payments can be made with credit/debit cards, contactless phone and watch payment systems. Rebates can only be returned immediately to cards linked directly to your savings/cheque account (not phones/watches sorry)
