PRACTICE FEES

Blackbutt Medical Centre pride ourselves on delivering the best quality, sustainable community health care.

From 1 November 2025, Blackbutt Medical Centre is a fully bulk-billing practice for eligible Medicare card holders.
While most consultations are bulk billed for eligible Medicare patients, some services are not covered under the Medicare Bulk Billing Incentive Program and may incur a private fee. These include procedures such as iron infusions, wound care, and travel vaccinations, as well as cosmetic treatments, employment or insurance medicals, and services for patients who are not eligible for Medicare.
(Subject to GP discretion)

If you are a Concession Card holder or qualify to be bulk billed please update your records with us so that you are ready for the transition. Bulk billing is available for people who have a valid Medicare card (after the first visit) and are:

  • Pension Card Holders
  • Health Care Card Holders
  • DVA Card Holders
  • Children under 16 years
  • Students under 25 years with a Student card
  • Undertaking a Mental Health Care plan
  • Undertaking a Chronic Disease Management Plan or Team Care Plan
  • Undertaking a Home medicines Review appointment.
  • 75+ Annual Health Check

$35 fee for transfer of medical records – when we receive a request for transfer of medical records for patients who have moved away from Blackbutt Medical Centre.

Please Note

If your card has expired, we are not able to accept the Medicare rebate as payment. You will be charged the full fee for service.

Please update your records with us so that you can authorize us to accept the Medicare rebate as payment in full.

If you are a Concession Card holder – Child under 16 years, you need to advise the Receptionist to up-date your Patient Details on the practice medical software with the name of whom the payee will be (under “Head of the Family”) so that you can be billed the consult fee and the payee can receive the Medicare rebate as payment in full back into their bank account.
