Fees and Rebates

At Manly Village Medical, we aim to provide superior health care that is affordable.  The Australian government funded Medicare scheme subsidises the cost of a person’s health care.  However, the Medicare rebate alone does not cover the cost of delivering high quality health care.  Hence, there is a “gap” or out-of-pocket cost for our services.

To assist our patients, we offer concessional rates for pension card holders.  DVA card holders are fully subsidised.  Bulk-billing is available in certain exceptional circumstances, for children under 2 years old on weekdays, and for routine childhood or over-65 year old vaccinations, and chronic disease management plans; however all weekend consultations will attract a fee.

After hour consultations (before 8.00am) have a higher fee and a higher Medicare rebate.  A standard (15 minute) consultation between 7.30am & 8.00am is $110.00 with a rebate of $53.90 ($56.10 out of pocket fee)
