Schedule of fees

Doctors practicing at Ochre are independent practitioners and they bill privately. This means patients will be charged a fee that is higher than the Medicare rebate for their consultation, in other words the Medicare rebate patients receive after paying their bill will only cover part of the total cost. These billing arrangements apply to both face-to-face and telehealth (video and phone) consultations. All patients will be charged the fees below except for Pensioner Concession Cardholders aged 65 and over, DVA Cardholders and children aged 5 and under who may be bulk-billed. Children aged 6 and over may be charged the discounted fees below or bulk-billed if parents or carers have a Commonwealth Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card. Childhood immunisations will be bulk-billed regardless of age. Commonwealth Health Care Cardholders and Commonwealth Seniors Health Card holders will be charged the discounted fees below.
