We wish to advise that from the 1st of August 2024, MedCentral Knox & Doctors@Knox will be changing our Fee Schedule.
Patients OVER the Age of 65 WITHOUT a Healthcare/Pensioner will now be carged $65 and receive a rebate of $42.85
Due to continually rising costs across the board and to ensure the viability of the clinic, this change will allow us to continue providing you with a high level of care.
Our clinics will continue to Bulk Bill the following categories:
✅ Patients AGED 15 and UNDER
✅ Patients who hold a current Healthcare/Pension card
✅ Routine Vaccinations (excluding travel immunisation)
✅ Wound dressings
✅ Chronic disease management plans
Please make sure you advise reception ASAP if you have a current Healthcare/Pension card so we can add this to your file to avoid any unnecessary charges.
This means patients who do not fall into the above categories will be charged an out of pocket fee. All Medicare rebates can be processed immediately back into your account if you are here face to face. If paying over the phone or online the rebate will appear in your bank by 6pm that night.
We appreciate your understanding during this transition, and please do not hesitate to speak to our friendly staff should you have any concerns.
We look forward to continuing to care for you and your family.
