Fees
The doctors at Hughesdale Family Medical Centre privately bill. Doctor consultation fees are payable in full at the time of consultation by cash, EFTPOS, or credit card. You may be asked to pay via HotDoc Payments. Consultation fees are charged depending on a number of factors, including length of consultation and complexity of services provided.
If you have a Medicare Card, Medicare will refund you a proportion of your appointment fee (Medicare rebate), and the remaining amount will be your out-of-pocket cost. Medicare rebates are available for most medical services and can be deposited into your bank account at the time of payment if you have a savings or cheque card with you. Alternatively, your Medicare rebate will be transmitted directly to Medicare, where the rebate will be reimbursed to your nominated bank.
The doctors will bulk bill their patients with a valid Medicare Card who are children 16 years of age and under, or concession and pension (blue card) cardholders.
Please note that there may be additional costs for other GP service items or clinic services, for wound care products, consumable items, materials used in procedures, contraceptives, certain vaccines, and specific administrative requests (e.g. transfer of medical records). The materials fee applies to all patients (including Medicare or concession cardholders).
Patients with financial difficulties should speak with reception staff prior to an appointment, either in person or over the phone.
