Fees and Billing
Rose Street Clinic, routinely, is not a bulk bill practice and fees are determined by the individual doctor. However, when an account is issued it is asked that the full amount is paid on the day of consult. If you register your bank details with Medicare, rebates are paid into your nominated bank account within 24 hours (forms available at reception). If you do not want to register your bank details you may choose to have a cheque sent to you or take your receipt into Medicare for reimbursement over the counter.
