Fees
We recommend you register your bank details with Medicare so that when your payment is processed at the practice, details can be sent directly to Medicare. You will then have your rebate directly credited to your bank account, usually within one or two days.
Standard consultation fees:
The full fee for a standard GP consultation lasting up to 20 minutes is $74.00. The Medicare rebate for a standard consultation is $38.20 and we can usually arrange for direct transfer of the Medicare refund back to your nominated bank account at reception.
Longer consultations, procedures and operations attract higher fees as do all travel vaccinations and any special services.
We are also able to schedule longer appointments for more complex problems, including 30 minute and 45 minute consultations. Reception staff can provide you with current fees for all services including longer consultations, treatment room procedures, wound dressings, skin checks, counselling, chronic disease plans and health checks.
Telehealth consultations will be bulk billed during the Covid-19 pandemic crisis if you have consulted a doctor at our practice within the last 12 months and if you are registered with Medicare. We expect the government to announce more changes to Telehealth soon.
You are required to provide the practice with consent to be billed in this way.
Children:
Our practice bulk bills children aged 5 years and younger on week-days. Bulk-billing is not available on week-ends or after-hours.
A private fee is charged on week-ends with out-of-pocket expenses applied.
Children aged 6 years or older are generally charged a private fee with Medicare rebate applicable.
Pensioners:
Aged and disability pensioners pay a minimum fee on week-days with out of pocket expenses capped at $12.00 per consultation from Monday to Friday. On week-ends a private fee is charged with greater out of pocket expenses.

Health care cardholders pay a discounted fee on week-days when out of pocket expenses are capped at $20.00 per consultation.
On week-ends and after-hours consultations a private fee is charged.
