FEES

In August and December, our fee and rebate schedule is updated in accordance with the

Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) annual fee indexation which occurs in July and November each year.

Fees

  • St Mary Family Doctors is a mixed billing practice, meaning most patients will now pay a 'gap payment' for appointments.
  • Patients exempt from these fees:
  • Children under 16 years of age.
  • Current pension card holders.
  • Current DVA card holders.
  • Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders.
  • Private billing will apply to holders of the Commonwealth Seniors Health Card
  • For more details, please see our list of schedule fees below (as of May 2023).
  • Our priority is always our patients, if you are experiencing any financial hardship and have questions regarding fees - please speak to your Doctor or our reception staff.

  • What is a 'gap payment'?

    A 'gap payment' is an out-of-pocket cost that is the difference between the practice's private fees and your Medicare rebate.
