Bulk Billing

Medicare & Bulk Billing

Accessible Healthcare Through Medicare

At Edmondson Park Medical Centre, we aim to make quality healthcare accessible to our local community.

We offer Medicare bulk billing for eligible patients and eligible medical services , subject to Medicare requirements and the practice's billing arrangements.

Bulk billing means that, for an eligible bulk-billed service, the Medicare benefit is accepted as full payment for that service and you do not have an out-of-pocket consultation fee.

What is Bulk Billing?

Bulk billing is a payment arrangement under Medicare where the medical practice accepts the applicable Medicare benefit as full payment for an eligible medical service.

If your consultation is bulk billed, the practice submits the Medicare claim on your behalf. This means you don't need to pay the consultation fee for that eligible service.

Whether bulk billing applies depends on your Medicare eligibility, the type of service provided and the practice's billing arrangements.
