At Elevate Medical, we spend that extra time with each person. We minimize wait times and provide better and more thorough medicine through extended consultation times.
We are a private billing clinic, with a small gap aimed at allowing more time and better care. These private fees apply to in-person, video or telehealth consultations. Payment is accepted via card only.
Consultation fees are charged according to various factors, including length, complexity and Medicare legislation. All health practitioners are independent health provider businesses, with separate Medicare Provider access, ABN and fee discretion. Indicative fees for medical consultations are below.
Our Fee structure involves an initial upfront payment of GAP + Medicare rebate, with Medicare rebate being processed at Reception.
Currently, Children under 16 years old AND over 65 years old WITH a valid concession card will be bulk billed for GP consultations on WEEDKAYS ONLY (excluding complex / sports / mole check consultations).
All pricing and fees assume access to Medicare subsidy. If no access to Medicare subsidy, pricing will differ.

The charge will vary according to the complexity of the procedure and there is no Medicare rebate for this fee. This fee is additional to any fees for medical dressings or medical supplies used.

WorkCover and Transport Accident Claims
Private fees are generally charged for ALL consults relating to TAC and WorkCover. Please take your receipt as evidence of payment for reimbursement. Although similar to Medicare rebates, processes for TAC and WorkCover reimbursements are different and even vary between Australian states and territories. Therefore, accounts are generally a matter between you as the patient and your employer, or between you and the TAC/ WorkCover insurer.
