Fees

Fees are payable on the day of consultation and can be paid using Cash or EFT/Credit Card. Upon full payment, our Receptionists will submit your claim to Medicare and in most instances you can instantly receive a rebate back onto supported cards. Other rebates will be paid by Medicare within a few days.

 

Telehealth
 

Telehealth fee rates are the same as in clinic appointments, and are available for regular patients of the clinic. Medicare rebates are only available if you have had a face to face appointment in the last 12 months. Not all appointment types are eligible for telehealth Medicare rebates, and as such in person appointments are preferred.  If you require physical examination, your doctor may request a face to face appointment

 

​To secure a telehealth booking, credit card details are required at the time of booking.

For long or extended telehealth consultations, you must be registered with MyMedicare and your GP to receive the correct rebate.“You can register for MyMedicare using your Medicare online account or for more information click here https://www.health.gov.au/our-work/mymedicare/patients
