These non GP specialists can be seen after referral from a general practitioner . For many consultations there will be a medicare rebate but also ” out of pocket ” costs . It is advisable to discuss with the GP and with the reception staff at the specialist clinic what the costs might be.  The Medicare safety net scheme can reduce out of pocket costs if you and your family have high costs in a particular year.
