Appointments & Fees
At Juniper Avenue Medical Centre, we understand that navigating healthcare can be confusing, especially when it comes to appointments and fees. That’s why we made a clear understanding of our appointment system, fees structure and billing practices.
Your Guide to Appointments & Fees
Due to rising costs, we need to charge out of pocket fees for our consultation. This allows us to continue providing quality and comprehensive care across all elements of our practice. Your rebate is fixed by the Federal Government and has not increased in relation to business costs. If the Government increased your rebate, your out-of-pocket fee would be lower.
Fees are payable at the time of consultation by Credit Card or EFTPOS.
Patients are encouraged to pay for all consults on the day. Our TYRO Eftpos system allows patients to receive Medicare rebates back into their account within 11 seconds when they pay in full with their debit card. Alternatively, patients can use their credit card and receive their Medicare rebate the next day into their bank account. Please note the only condition for the next day rebate is that patients need to have registered their account with Medicare for the rebates to be put back into their account.
The practitioners set their own consultation fees. The listed fees are a guide only. Charges will be made depending on your consulting doctor, the length of the time you spent with our doctor and the complexity of your medication conditions.
Patients are encouraged to discuss with their doctor any difficulty they may have in meeting the consultation fee.
