Dear Patients,
We would like to inform you that our clinic will continue operating as a private billing practice and will not be transitioning to bulk billing, despite recent changes introduced by the Federal Government.
About the Medicare Changes:
Despite these initiatives, the current Medicare rebate system does not fully cover the cost of delivering high-quality and comprehensive medical care.
Why We Are Staying Private Billing:
What This Means for You:
As always, if you are currently experiencing financial hardship, please speak to your treating doctor or with our practice manager prior to your appointment.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and ongoing support during this time of change in Australia’s healthcare system.
If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact our reception team.
The Highton Clinic will continue to operate as a private billing practice and will not be transitioning to bulk billing from 1st November 2025, despite the recent changes introduced by the Federal Government.
We remain committed to providing high-quality care to our patients and appreciate your continued support and understanding.
