Fee Increase

Effective from Monday, 25th July 2022

To our loyal patients.


Due to increasing costs and to maintain sustainability, doctors at Balnarring Medical Centre have made the difficult decision to slightly increase their fees. It has been some time since there has been a fee increase.

We do understand that this may be difficult for some patients, however to be financially viable it is a move that we have been forced to make.

GPs at Balnarring Medical Centre take pride in providing the highest quality medical care to the residents of Balnarring and the wider community.

GPs at the clinic are Private Billing and Bulk Bill Aged Pensioners, children under 16 and Veteran Affairs card holders. Patients on a Health Care Card pay a discounted fee and all other patients pay in full on the day. We can arrange your Medicare rebate to be transferred into your nominated bank account.

GP private fees will be:

Standard consultation Monday-Friday, face to face or telephone:

Full fee paying patient: $85

Health Care Card patient: $65

Medicare rebate: $39.75

Standard consultation Saturday, face to face or telephone:

ALL patients: $90

Medicare rebate: $39.75

Long consultation Monday-Friday, face to face or telephone:

Full fee paying patient: $145

Health Care Card patient: $110

Medicare rebate: $76.95


We do appreciate your continued support and we thank you for your understanding.
