Payment, Charges, and Rebates Guidelines

  • The doctors practicing out of BFWC choose to privately bill their patients. Billing is at your doctors discretion.
  • Most of the doctors choose to charge fees in accordance with the fee schedule below.
  • The cost of pathology tests, vaccines, and any other third-party costs are not included in your appointment fee.
  • If you’re eligible to receive a Medicare rebate we’ll ask you to pay the full amount on the day, and process your refund via Medicare Online - the rebate will be in your bank account within 24 hours.
  • The doctors fees are based on length of time taken, or plans that may be required. They are not based on the length of time you book.
  • Telehealth consultations are available to all patients. Telehealth consults will be privately billed as per the doctors normal fees. Patients are only eligible for a Medicare rebate if they have seen a doctor face to face at BFWC in the previous 12 months.
  • Payment is required at the time of the consultation. For your convenience the doctors accept cash, eftpos, or credit card (please note all card payments incur a 1.1% surcharge). Personal cheques are not accepted.
  • Cancellation Policy: For appointments not kept or cancelled with less than 2 hours notice a fee may be charged by your doctor. This is not rebateable by Medicare.
