🌬 November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month 💙

Early detection can save lives — and now there’s a new national screening program that makes it easier than ever to check your lung health.

The National Lung Cancer Screening Program (NLCSP) offers free low-dose CT scans for eligible people aged 50–70 with a history of smoking. You may qualify if you currently smoke or quit within the last 10 years and have no symptoms of lung cancer.

✅ How to get started:
Book an appointment with your GP here at Corrie Street Medical Clinic — we’ll help you check your eligibility and arrange your screening if you qualify.

🔗 Learn more about the program:

Let’s spread the word this Lung Cancer Awareness Month — early detection truly makes a difference. 💙

Why We Won’t Be Bulk Billing Every Appointment (from Nov 1st)

At CSMC, we’re committed to providing personal, high-quality care — not rushed “6-minute medicine.”

To stay sustainable and keep offering the care our patients deserve, we’ll continue as a mixed billing practice.
We still bulk bill patients for— health assessments, kids under 12, and childhood immunisations — but some appointments will have a gap fee.

Recent government changes have reduced Medicare rebates and removed key mental health items, which makes universal bulk billing no longer possible.

We know healthcare costs matter.
💙 You can ask if you’re eligible for a care plan

📣 Contact your local MP to share how these changes affect you

Thank you for understanding and supporting quality, patient-focused healthcare.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! 💗

Early detection saves lives.
Take a few minutes to check your breasts regularly — know what’s normal for you and see your doctor if you notice:
🔹 A new lump or thickening
🔹 Changes in size, shape, or feel
🔹 Skin dimpling or redness
🔹 Ni**le discharge or inversion

Your health matters. 💪
