Practice Billing Policy

At Hurstbridge Medical Centre, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest standard of medical care in a welcoming and professional environment.

From July 2026, there will be a modest increase to our consultation fees. While Medicare rebates have increased slightly, they continue to fall well short of covering the true cost of delivering quality general practice care. This fee adjustment is necessary to help us continue providing comprehensive, high-quality healthcare, invest in our experienced team, maintain our facilities, and ensure we can offer the level of service our patients expect and deserve.

We appreciate you’re understanding and continued support. If you have any questions regarding our fees, please don't hesitate to speak with one of our friendly reception team members.

We understand circumstances may change and sometimes you may need to cancel last minute, however a NO SHOW SERVICE FEE of $25, maybe charged if you don't show up for your appointment rather than cancelling.
