Patients who are 15 and under, holders of a Centrelink health care concession card or a pension card who book in with doctors will be bulk billed throughout the day on weekdays.
On weekends, most of our doctors are private billing which means that you will incur a private fee if you see a doctor. This includes Healthcare Card Holders and patients 15 and under. Some doctors may bulk bill on weekends. Please contact reception for more information.
If a telephone appointment falls under a private billing time, the same rules as in-person appointments apply.
