Fee Policy

Bulk billing is available for anyone with a current Medicare card. Remember to bring your Medicare card and current concession card to your next visit.

Consultations under Workcover and TAC will be charged privately and there is no rebate from Medicare for these services.

Dressings, some vaccines, procedures and insurance/ pre-employment medicals will incur a private fee. You will be required to pay this fee before leaving the clinic. An account fee of $10 will be added to your account if not settled on the day. There is no medicare rebate for any consumables such as dressings, plaster, slings, procedure fees for minor surgery or any medicals for employment or insurance. For your convenience we have EFTPOS facilities available.

A fee structure is located at reception.

Bulk Billing Consent (Assignment of Benefit)

To continue providing eligible patients with bulk billed consultations, Clyde North Medical Centre now uses an electronic Assignment of Benefit (AoB) consent process.

What do I need to do?

After your eligible bulk billed consultation, you will receive a Bulk Billing Consent Request via HotDoc as either a push notification (if you have the HotDoc app) or an SMS.

Please complete this request as soon as possible.

Your response authorises your Medicare benefit to be paid directly to the practice, allowing us to bulk bill your consultation.
