Procedures
We do minor skin and other procedures in-house and there is a procedure fee involved to cover for costs of equipment/dressings. The fees vary depending on the complexity of the procedures.
Grandfathered Patients
Some of our patients are still bulk-billed for their consultations even though our practice billing policy for bulk billing has changed in the last two years. Unfortunately, due to the increasing costs of running a general practice, East Canberra General Practice is no longer able to offer this exception. These patients will now be asked to pay a private fee for their consultations. If this affects you, you can speak to your doctor about what this means for you.
Weekend Fees
A private fee is charged for all face-to-face weekend consultations. These fees are higher than regular fees.
Saturday: 15mins $105 / 30mins $180
Sunday: 15mins $130 / 30mins $205
Please refer to the fee table below from the 1st August onwards.
Cancellation Fees
All appointment cancellations will require a minimum of 2hrs notice on the day of the appointment. (e.g. to cancel a 3pm appointment the patient would have to give notice by 1pm on the same day). There will be a $40 charge for all missed appointments of a standard length (15min) & $80 for long appointments (30mins or more). These charges will be payable before patients are allowed to make further appointments.
Payment is due at time of consultation
For consultations where a private fee is due, patients are requested to pay at the time of the consultation. We accept cash, EFTPOS and credit cards. Patients who have difficulty paying should discuss the issue with their doctor.
Workers Compensation claims and Third Party Insurance claims are the responsibility of the patient. Payment at the time of consultation is required.
