July is the time of the year we update our salaries and usual fees. We use the Consumer Price Index to ensure our staff salaries increase appropriately and our fees must rise as well. Unfortunately the medicare rebates have once again not been indexed to keep up with inflation. We encourage you to talk to the federal politicians about that issue! Remember every doctor is entitled to alter their fee depending on the complexity of the consultation.
NEW PATIENTS
With three doctors starting at once, there are many new patients registering. Please collect a new patient registration form and complete it to assist our very busy reception staff. Once your details are set up on our system things will be less hectic!
