📢 Today’s the day!

From 1 November 2025, new Medicare bulk billing changes officially take effect across Australia.

In line with these changes, Barrymore Medical Centre has returned to bulk billing for standard GP consultations — that means no out-of-pocket cost for eligible patients with a valid Medicare card.

✅ Standard bulk billed appointments include:

Check-ups

Script renewals

General consultations

Please note, some services are not covered under the new Medicare rules.
Procedures such as procedures and iron infusions will now have private fees.

To ensure we can continue to provide consistent care, we’re focusing on our existing patients and are not accepting new patients at this time.
If you haven’t visited us in the last three years, you’ll be considered a new patient under this policy.

If you’re unsure whether your visit is bulk billed, our reception team is happy to confirm when you book or check in.

💚 Thank you for your understanding and ongoing support.

📢 Important update from Barrymore Medical Centre

From 1 November 2025, changes to the Medicare bulk billing system are coming.
To support our existing patients, we’re returning to bulk billing for standard GP consultations (check-ups, scripts, and general visits) — no out-of-pocket cost with a valid Medicare card.

⚠️ Some services like procedures and iron infusions will now have private fees as they’re not covered under the new rules.

We’re also focusing on caring for our current patients, so we’re not taking new patients at this time. If you haven’t visited us in the past three years, you’ll be considered new under this policy.

If you’re unsure about your fees or status, our reception team can help when you book.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support 💚

📅 World Osteoporosis Day – October 20 🦴💙

Osteoporosis is often called the “silent disease” because it weakens bones without obvious symptoms — until a fracture happens.

Did you know?

Over 1 million Australians have osteoporosis.

Fragile bones can lead to serious fractures, especially in the hip, spine, and wrist.

🩺 How can your GP help?

Your doctor at Barrymore Medical Centre can:
✔️ Assess your risk factors (age, family history, lifestyle)
✔️ Order a DEXA scan — the gold standard test to measure bone density and diagnose osteoporosis early
✔️ Recommend lifestyle changes and treatments to protect your bones and reduce fracture risk

What is a DEXA scan?

It’s a simple, painless, low-radiation scan that measures how dense your bones are — helping your GP understand your bone health and decide the best prevention or treatment plan.

Take care of your bones!

Eat calcium-rich foods

Stay active with weight-bearing exercises

Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol

Get your bones checked if you’re at risk

📞 Concerned about osteoporosis or bone health? Book an appointment with your GP today at Barrymore Medical Centre.

🧬💚 October is Liver Awareness Month 💚🧬
Your liver does over 500 vital functions — but are you looking after it?

✔️ Helps filter toxins
✔️ Supports digestion
✔️ Regulates blood sugar & cholesterol
✔️ Stores essential vitamins

Yet 1 in 3 Australians may have fatty liver disease — and many don’t even know it.

👩‍⚕️ What you can do:

✅ Get your liver function tested (simple blood test)
✅ Limit alcohol intake
✅ Maintain a healthy weight
✅ Stay active and eat well
✅ Manage diabetes and cholesterol

📍 Book a check-up with your GP today — early detection can prevent long-term liver damage.

Let’s take care of the organ that quietly takes care of us every day.
