We are a mixed billing practice
Mooloolah Family Clinic operates as a mixed billing clinic. Bulk billing is available for children 15 years and under, pensioners, health care card holders, Commonwealth Seniors Card holders (not Qld Seniors) and DVA card holders. Patients 65 and older without one of these valid concession cards will only be bulk billed at their doctor’s discretion. A small out of pocket fee applies to all other consultations (please see the price list below). All billing is at the individual doctor’s discretion. Please speak to your doctor if you have any financial difficulties or any billing questions prior to your appointment. Our Receptionist will be able to process your Medicare claim immediately by submitting the account to Medicare after your appointment. This allows for the Medicare rebate to be reimbursed into your nominated bank account within 2 days.
We offer three different lengths of appointment, standard, long and prolonged. A standard appointment can address one main medical issue, or two smaller issues. You may be asked to book again if you have further issues to discuss. For mental health issues, please book a long consultation. A long consultation is for patients with numerous medical issues to discuss and can address more complex medical problems or mental health issues. A prolonged consultation may be required for taking an extensive patient history, performing a clinical examination or implementing a management plan.
