[HEALTH ALERT]

SA Health has been notified of a case of measles in a child who was exposed overseas.

Measles is a serious and highly contagious infectious disease.

Anyone who isn’t fully immunised, and particularly those who were in the locations at the times listed, should be alert for symptoms over the next few weeks and see a doctor if they become ill.

Symptoms of measles start with fever, cough, runny nose, and sore eyes, followed by a blotchy rash which usually begins on the head and then spreads down the body.

If you believe you have measles symptoms, contact your doctor before you visit so precautions can be taken to avoid spreading the infection to others.

We’re moving to Bulk Billing — From 1 November 2025

We’re pleased to share that Murray Bridge Medical Centre has submitted an Expression of Interest to the Australian Government to become a fully bulk-billing practice, in line with the Strengthening Medicare initiative.

From 1 November 2025, we will transition to bulk billing for “standard GP visits” for all patients with a current and up-to-date Medicare card — including face-to-face & phone visits.

Please note:
Some services are not covered under this Medicare initiative and will continue to attract private fees. These include (but are not limited to):
• Minor surgical procedures
• Medicals (e.g. pre-employment, driver’s licence, insurance)
• Sutures, wound care, and other treatment room procedures
• Paperwork or reports not funded by Medicare

Our team will let you know if any out-of-pocket fees apply before your appointment.

A note on sustainability
As a small community practice, we remain at the mercy of government Medicare rebates, keeping pace with the ongoing cost of running a healthcare business. While we’re proud to support this initiative and make care more accessible, we may need to review this model in the future if it becomes financially unsustainable.

We understand that these billing changes can be confusing, and we’re here to help. Our team will do their best to explain any fees, and we’ll keep our posts and updates as clear as possible for ease of understanding.

Please ensure your Medicare details are correct and up to date before your next visit.
Book online: www.murraybridgemedical.com.au
Call: 08 8531 2988

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support as we work together to provide accessible, quality healthcare for the community.
