Fees & Charges
BILLING CHANGES EFFECTIVE FROM 15 AUGUST 2022.
Bremer Medical Centre has delivered accessible, high-quality care for many years and we continue to evolve to meet the needs of our patients. Our GPs allow enough time for patients to discuss their concerns, conduct investigations and maintain detailed records. GPs at Bremer Medical Centre also allocate longer appointments for patients with complex care.
We are committed to providing our community with a continuity of this level of exceptional care through a sustainable service.
The decision to change our billing is based on stagnant Medicare rebates and the increased overall costs of operations. These changes will allow us to provide our patients with high-quality GPs, nurses, and administration staff.
Patients are required to pay the full amount on the day of consultation. We can process your Medicare rebate immediately for your convenience.
Bremer Medical Centre will continue to bulk bill the following groups of patients:
- Under 16 years of age
- 65 years or over with Concession Cards
- DVA GOLD Card Holders
- DVA White Card Holders if consult is related to approved condition
* Doctors are independent contractors and at their discretion may set their own fees. If you are currently experiencing financial difficulty, please speak to your GP regarding this at the time of your consult.
