As of 1st November, our billing policies will remain unchanged. We will not be moving to the governments 100% bulk bulling scheme which rewards fast turnover low quality 6-10m minute consults instead of properly funding thorough and more complex care.

To maintain the high quality comprehensive care and service we strive to provide at RTFP, we need to charge a private gap on most standard consultations.

The new incentive program the government has presented to encourage more bulk billing practices falls well below our current fees. Our fees are decided with careful consideration to balance affordability for patients with the need to ensure continued viability of the practice.
