Belmont Bulkbilling & Family Medical Clinic is an accredited family owned practice.

Medicare Claims & Concessional Patient Bulkbilling

All patients must produce a valid Medicare or Veteran Affairs Card to every consultation in order to be bulkbilled
Anyone holding a valid Pension, Concession or Healthcare Card must also present this along with their Medicare Card to every visit
Work Cover & TAC patients are welcome, but will be required to pay privately for their visits
Some services such as Pre-Employment Medicals are not rebate-able through Medicare and therefore must be paid privately on the day of consultation. If unsure, check with reception for details.

Private fees are only charged to those who do not present with a valid Medicare, Veteran's, BUPA O/S or OSHC O/S Card
Private Fees are $50 for standard consultation on Weekdays or $66 on Weekends
Work Cover & TAC rates are $58 for standard consultations on Weekdays
Extended consultations and surgical procedures may incur a higher fee

If you are experiencing chest pains please call an ambulance on 000
An After Hours on call doctor is available after 6:00 pm each night on (03) 5241 3581.
An upfront fee of $250 applies as this service is not bulkbilled. Additional services (suturing etc) are charged at the practice fee rate. A private account, reflecting the out of pocket cost, will be issued to Medicare on behalf of the patient for claiming purposes.

Patients are able to nominate specific doctors, however some may incur longer wait times and it is advisable to see the next available doctor
We strive to make waiting times as short as possible and all patients will be prioritized by nursing staff based on the urgency of their condition

It is the responsibility of each patient to follow up on all ordered test results
In accordance with AGPAL guidelines, results will not be given over the phone
If you would like to know or discuss your results, you are welcome to see any doctor on duty
