Bulk BillingFees & Billing
IMPORTANT BILLING INFORMATION
Dear Valued Patients,
Coburg Family Medical Centre is a bulk billing clinic. All patients holding a valid Medicare card will be bulk billed.
However, please note that bulk billing may not apply in certain cases such as iron infusions, minor procedures, and other specific services. Private fees will also apply for specialists, dental services, some allied health appointments, and all other non-GP consultations.
For patients without a valid Medicare card, an out-of-pocket fee will apply for all consultations.
Patients with overseas health insurance must bring their physical insurance card to each appointment. Please note that we only accept Medibank and NIB. Full payment is required on the day of your appointment, payable by EFTPOS. If paying by cash, please provide the exact amount, as we do not keep cash on the premises.
A cancellation fee may apply if you:
- Fail to attend your appointment, or
- Cancel within 2 hours of your GP consultation, or
- Cancel within 24 hours of your specialist/allied health appointment.
We are now able to accommodate walk-in appointments, subject to availability.
The team at Coburg Family Medical Centre sincerely thanks you for your understanding and ongoing support. We value your trust in the services we provide.
Warm regards,
Team At Coburg Family Medical Centre
