Please note: patients with overseas visitor health cover (Australian Private Health Cover) can claim a benefit from their insurer. Please retain a copy of your receipt to claim your benefit.

Patients with travel insurance:  you might need to obtain a copy of your consult notes from your doctor. You will then need to present your medical notes and a copy of your receipt to your insurer.

For travel insurance you might need to have obtained prior consent from your insurer.

Private fees may also apply for some Booked GP consultations (see details below: ‘Appointments’).  

Initial workers compensation consultations will incur a fee either when a claim number is not provided or approval by the employer granting access to medical treatment with our doctors under workers compensation is not given before the initial consultation.   

The doctors in this medical centre bulk-bill all patients electing to see the First Available doctor who have a valid Medicare card.

For bulk-billing walk-in consultations with the First Available doctor you may choose to join the queue remotely via the HaloGP app or simply drop-in to the medical centre. You must have a valid Medicare card to access bulk-billing services. Please note: join the queue remotely via the HaloGP app is only available between 8am to 4pm daily.   

Doctors will see patients according to their place in the queue based on their time of attendance. However, patients triaged with urgent medical conditions will be given priority.   

Requests to see a Preferred Doctor is subject to availability  

As doctors see patients according to their place in the queue based on their time of attendance the doctors may not have time to see all patients who have made a request to see them. Any requests to see a preferred doctor exceeding the doctor’s capacity during their scheduled hours for that day may not be permissible.  

To see your preferred doctor, we recommend that patients either book an appointment, or join the queue early during the preferred doctor’s span-of-hours for that day.   

Please note: requests to see particular doctors cannot be accepted any earlier than 15 minutes before the doctor’s scheduled start-time.  

When joining the queue to see a doctor be sure to present your Medicare card and or concession cards to reception on your attendance.

All NEW PATIENTS to the medical centre must present their photo ID and Medicare card or passport to complete their registration.
