Telehealth consultations
All telehealth consultations are privately billed as per the above schedule. Under the Medicare regulations, if you have not seen a doctor in our clinic in the previous 12 months, there is no Medicare rebate available. Private fees apply. If the carer opts for a telehealth consultation on behalf of the patient, the patient is only eligible for rebate if they are present during the consultation.
Fee policy - Travel Health consultations
Please note that Travel Health consultations are longer appointments and therefore attract a higher consultation fee. Travel vaccines can be costly, especially if multiple members of the family are attending for vaccinations. Travel vaccines vary in price with some vaccines costing over $100 per injection; the doctor will advise you regarding cost of vaccines at the time of consultation. No accounts will be issued, full payment for the consultation and vaccines are required on the day of your appointment.
Payment methods
We accept the following payment methods.
Please pay at reception straight after your consultation.
