    PRIVATE MIXED BILLINGS
    FEE PAYABLE=(1)CONSULT TIME FEE + (2)ANY ADDITIONAL FEES/SURCHARGES

    (1)CONSULTATION TIME FEE

    • Standard 10 min consult
      • Bulk bill for Medicare card holders who are children under the age of 16, pensioners and concession card holders.
      • A gap of $30 will apply for all other Medicare card holders. For example Saturday standard consult fee after 1pm is $83.90, Medicare reimburses $53.90, patient “out of pocket expense” gap is $30.
    • Longer consults over 10 minutes. $25/5mins total consult fee regardless of age/concession status.
      • Medicare generally reimburses more than half of this fee. Example. 25 min consult = $125 total consult fee. Medicare reimburses $80.10, gap is $44.90.
      • The proportion reimbursed by Medicare is generally less the longer the consult is.
      • All longer consults should be done face to face. Telehealth consult “out of pocket expense” gaps are typically much higher than face to face due to the structure of Medicare reimbursement.
    • Gap likely waived in these situations at the discretion of treating practitioner:
      • Repeat script only.
      • Covid or Influenza vaccination only, administered by nurse.
      • For a subsequent consult to follow up on uncomplicated results, booked by patient at the time test is requested, such follow up is bulk billed. We request all patients to make such bookings so that follow up is not missed. However fees will be applicable if GP is spending time chasing patient regarding abnormal results, or following up on other practitioners results.
      • Regular patient of GP, Medicare eligible for care plan, GPMHTP, or age > 75health assessment.

    • Late payment $30 (Payments are expected to be made on the day of consultation. If there is delay of over 1 month, late fee is applicable)
