Fee Structure

Gracemere Medical Centre is a private billing practice and we ask you to pay in full at the time of consultation.    

The Medicare rebate, bulk billing, only covers a small portion of the costs of providing high-quality healthcare. Community General Practice is not subsidised by State or Federal Governments, unlike the hospital system. We are a locally owned small business, like many other General practices.

Payment of fees is expected on the day of the consultation. For specialized services a consultation fee is usually required as well as the service.

We continue to Bulk Bill:

  • People who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander
  • Health Assessments and Care Plans for Chronic Disease
  • Discount Rate is for people who hold a concession card from Centrelink – Pension or Health Care Card

You can pay your account any way you like (cash, credit card or debit card), however you can only collect your Medicare rebate using our TYRO machine by using a debit card (savings or cheque account – Medicare will not pay onto credit cards). Surcharge fees from the EFT POS company are applied at the time of the transaction by the EFT POS company – Tyro.
