Private Consultation Fees

North Coast Medical Centre is a private billing practice. All consultations are charged at our standard private consultation fee. This includes appointments for both new and existing patients, as well as visitors to the practice.

We offer bulk billing for eligible MyMedicare-registered patients, children under 16 years of age, and Pension Card and Health Care Card holders. Eligibility is determined at the discretion of your treating doctor and may not apply to all consultation types or services.

After your consultation, we will process your Medicare claim on your behalf. Your eligible Medicare rebate is usually paid directly into your nominated bank account, so you only pay the difference between our private consultation fee and your Medicare rebate.

Bank processing fees will be applied up until October 2026 to payments made by card.

Results

Patients need to book a consultation to discuss results with the doctor to ensure quality care. Results can now be given over the phone, this will require an appointment. If your doctor needs to discuss a specific result with you; you will be informed by text to make an appointment.

Reminder System

Our practice is committed to preventative care. We will issue you with a reminder text offering you preventative health services appropriate to your care. With the Hotdoc reminder system you will be asked to click through the text to a link and follow the directions. To protect your privacy, you will need to verify with your name and date of birth. If you do not wish to be part of this system, please let us know.

Communicating with your Practitioner

Messages can be left with reception staff in person, phone or email. Your message will be conveyed to the Doctor. Your doctor or the NCMC team will respond to your request as soon as possible. It is advised that is best to book an appointment, as the doctor can then have allocated time to look into your request.
