Fees

Our Billings Explained

Here at Moreland GP, we are predominantly a private billing practice and appreciate full payment of fees on the day of consultation. We accept Cash, Credit card, or EFTPOS.

A Medicare rebate will apply to most consultation fees. At the time of payment, the rebate can be returned directly into your bank account via your EFTPOS card OR you may choose to have it directly deposited into your account from Medicare.

Our fees remain below those recommended by the AMA and our billing policy is displayed on our notice board in reception. Please discuss with your doctor if your medical care is causing you financial difficulties

Bulk Billing

As we are a mixed billing clinic we do have some Bulk Billing doctors available . Some procedures/plans are also eligible to be Bulk Billed. Please note there is NO Bulk Billing on Saturdays, or after 5pm Weekdays.

What is Bulk Billing ?

Bulk billing means that the practice is paid directly by Medicare, on behalf of the patient.

Normally, if you are bulk-billed, you sign a form and do not have to pay an out of pocket fee. The doctor recovers 85 or 100 per cent of the Schedule fee directly from Medicare as payment for his/her services — currently $37.60 for a standard GP consultation.
