My dear friends,

Thank you so much for all your kind hearted wishes and love shown to me. It means a lot to me.

Ferrers Medical Clinic would like to confirm that we will continue to operate as a mixed billing clinic. We are not moving to full bulk billing, and our existing billing policy and fees will remain unchanged.

With the recent changes to government billing arrangements, we’d like to highlight that Medicare rebates for bulk-billed services often do not cover the full cost of providing quality care.

Over the years, the costs of running a medical practice have risen considerably, while Medicare rebates have not kept pace with inflation or the real expenses involved in healthcare delivery.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued support as we strive to deliver the highest standard of care to our patients.
