Do you Bulk-Bill?

All GPs at the Centre are independent practitioners who operate their own practice and who decide their own fees for their own patients. Generally speaking, the GPs at this Centre are mixed billing, which means only some services and patients are Bulk Billed. Please speak with your Doctor to determine their fees.

What is mixed billing?

Mixed Billing means independent GPs charge a private fee for some consultations and patients, and bulk bills others. Each GP makes his or her own decisions on billings. Bulk-Billing is when the payment for your consultation or treatment with your doctor is covered entirely by Medicare, whereas services not covered by bulk billing attract a private fee and you will receive a rebate from Medicare. This means there is an out of pocket cost to you.

Why should I pay a private fee?

The GPs at the Centre passionately believe in providing access to high quality healthcare to the community. By becoming a mixed billing practice, independent GPs are able to meet the rising costs of running their own practice to minimise wait times and provide high quality care so that you and your family receive the healthcare that you deserve in a family friendly environment.

No Medicare Card

Patients without a valid Medicare or concession card will pay a private fee and are not eligible to receive a Medicare rebate.
