Fully bulk billing practice · for eligible servicesQuick answer
Yes — Wallan Doctors will be a fully bulk billing GP practice for eligible services. If you have a valid Medicare card, eligible services such as standard GP consultations will be bulk billed, so there is no gap to pay. Anything not covered by Medicare will always be explained before your appointment.
No gap foreligible services
When a service is bulk billed, we claim the Medicare benefit directly and accept it as full payment. You don't pay anything on the day for that service and there's nothing to claim back.
As a fully bulk billing practice, we'll bulk bill every eligible Medicare service for patients with a valid Medicare or DVA card — children, adults, families and older patients alike.
