WE WILL BE PRIVATE BILLING ALL PATIENTS

Dear Patients

The Covid year 2020, was a very difficult time for our Practice.  Our income has been reduced significantly and the Practice is unsustainable at this rate.

For this reason we, the Doctors have decided to privately bill all patients.  our standard fee is $78 with a rebate of $38.75.

Health care and pension card holders will have a reduced fee of $54.00 with approximately $15 out of pocket.

We would like to keep our doors open to serve our wonderful patients but this can only happen with your support.

Thank you for your understanding
