Practice Fees

Mediclinic Clayton is a mixed billing medical centre. In order to provide a better patient care, an out of pocket fee is applicable on your consultation if you are not eligible for bulk-bill. You will be reimbursed a percentage of your consult fee by Medicare or your Private Insurer. It is the patient responsibility to update their bank details with Medicare for a prompt reimbursement. Alternatively, if you bring your Debit Card with you, we can process your Medicare Rebate on the spot using Easyclaim. The Rebate is returned to your bank account instantly.
