ANNOUNCEMENT
Medibank Flu Vaccine
Dear Valued Patients,
We would like to inform you that the Medibank flu vouchers campaign has concluded.
Thank you for your participation. If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to contact our practice.
Myhealth Southland is a fully accredited, mixed billing general medical practice which has served the local community for many years. Our practice is strongly committed to providing the highest standard of medical support to our patients with compassion, courtesy and confidentiality.
OUR SERVICES
Our doctors and practice offer a broad range of services which encompass both in-person and telehealth consultations. You may click on each doctor’s photo to see their profile which includes their specific interests and services they are able to provide.
New Services in our clinic:
- Acupuncture – Dr Anna Tai
- Anti-Wrinkle Injections – Dr Raman Kaur
- LED Light Therapy – Dr Raman Kaur
From 1st July 2022, we have moved to become a mixed billing practice. We still bulk bill children under 16, adults over 65, pension card holders and health care card holders. All other patients pay a ‘gap fee’ of $30.00
With the rising costs and limited Medicare rebates, it has become challenging to keep this clinic running. We have absorbed these costs for as long as we could, however, the practice must now make some changes.
All patients will be charged a fee for consultations. The exceptions are:-
• children under 16
• adults over 65
• pension card holders
• health care card holders
Summary of Most Common Fees
| Appointment Type | Item Number | Total Payments | Medicare Rebate | Out of Pocket Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brief Consult | 3 | $48.85 | $18.85 | $30 |
| Standard Consult | 23 | $71.20 | $41.20 | $30 |
| Long Consult | 36 | $109.70 | $79.70 | $30 |
| Prolonged Consult | 44 | $147.90 | $117.40 | $30 |
| Telehealth Consult | 91891 | $71.20 | $41.20 | $30 |
***NOTE: ALL Saturday appointments will be charged the fees listed above (no bulk billing for any patients).
What is mixed billing?
Mixed billing means that most patients will now pay a ‘gap payment’ for appointments. A gap payment is an out-of-pocket cost that is the difference between the practice’s private fee and your Medicare rebate. Our gap fee is $30.
When will bulk billing still apply?
Access to healthcare is very important to us. Therefore certain patients will continue to be bulk billed. (see exceptions above). Chronic disease care plans, mental health care plans, covid and flu vaccine will continue to be bulk billed.
How will the fee be processed?
You will be charged the full consultation fee to your credit or debit card at the end of your appointment.
Medicare Card Holders: We can electronically process your Medicare rebate on your behalf. The rebate should appear in your bank account within 1-2 business days. If you have a debit card, we can process your payment through ‘easy claim’ and you will receive the rebate instantly. The gap fee is $30.
OSHC Card Holders: You will be charged the full consultation fee and given a tax invoice and proof of payment. You will then need to lodge this with your insurer. The gap fee is $30.
Please note: All Saturday appointments will be charged the full consultation fee (as above) with the $30 gap – there are no exceptions on a Saturday.
We are committed to maintaining and improving the quality of healthcare we provide. In order to protect the sustainability of the practice, we need to make this change. We cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support to our practice – in the past and into the future as we make this transition.
