The official fee information also says prepayment is required for some services, including new patient appointments, telephone consultations, script/referral requests and non-Medicare card holders. Weekend rates apply on Saturday and Sunday.

Long appointment cautionNew patients, procedures, mental health, insurance medicals and initial WorkCover/third-party visits may need longer bookings.

Fee script: “I’m booking for [reason]. Will this be bulk billed, privately billed or discounted? Is there a weekend, after-hours, new-patient, telehealth, procedure, script/referral or paperwork fee?”

  • Do not forget the 4-hour cancellation notice rule; non-attendance or late cancellation fees may apply.
