📌Bulk Billing📌

To keep patients informed, we wanted to share the realities of the government’s new bulk billing incentives. This isn’t intended as criticism — but it’s important that our community receives accurate information.

Starting 1 November 2025, the government introduced new bulk billing incentives that reward shorter consultations and a model of care focused on throughput rather than quality — but we believe your health deserves more than quantity over quality.

At Princess Park Clinic, the practitioners who consult from our rooms value the time needed to listen, understand, and manage health concerns thoroughly. Good medicine isn’t about how many patients can be seen in a day — it’s about providing safe, personal, and considered care. It’s difficult to see how ‘six-minute medicine’ could lead to improved outcomes for patients.

While these new incentives may sound positive, they don’t come close to covering the real costs of delivering quality healthcare. Running a reputable, accredited clinic involves far more than what happens in the consultation room, it requires skilled administrative and nursing support, medical equipment, technology, supplies, insurance, and compliance. These are all essential to maintaining the standard of care patients expect and deserve.

Medicare rebate amounts have not significantly increased for many years, not even in line with CPI, and now cover only a fraction of the true cost of providing care. Unfortunately, this means there is an out-of-pocket cost to patients. At the current rebate levels, moving to a fully bulk-billed model would not meet the overheads required to keep the clinic sustainable.

Maintaining a sustainable practice also allows us to continue contributing to the future of general practice by supporting and training GP registrars and medical students. This ensures the next generation of doctors can learn in a setting that values comprehensive, community-focused medicine - something that benefits regional healthcare for years to come.

For this reason, Princess Park Clinic will continue to operate as a mixed-billing practice. This approach allows the practitioners to bulk bill eligible services while maintaining the time and quality required for more complex appointments.

We understand that healthcare costs are a concern. The clinic remains committed to keeping fees fair, offering gap-only payments upfront, and supporting patients in genuine financial need wherever possible.

We also encourage patients to contact the local Federal Member of Parliament to share how these changes affect you as this is a broader funding issue across general practice.

Thank you for your continued support and keeping patient-centred care alive in our community.
