Pricing/Fees
Billing
We are a mixed billing clinic with the exception of children under the age of 16 and DVA gold card holders who will remain bulk billed. Pension and concession card holders will receive a reduced rate, approximately $25-$40 out of pocket depending on the consultation. Health Assessments and Care Plans will remain bulk billed.
Myhealth Yarrabilba will start billing new patients regardless of their status, i.e HCC or PCC. Only children under 16 years of age are exempt from these changes.
Skin Cancer checks with Dr Brent Paine include a whole body skin check with a dermatoscope and these consultations incur a $40 gap fee regardless of concession card status. Further procedures and removals are at a low-cost or directly bulk-billed to Medicare. This is on a case-by-case basis and is dependant on the relevant Medicare Rebate.
