Does this practice bulk bill?

Bulk billing is a decision each practice and often each doctor makes, and many now bulk bill only certain groups such as children or concession card holders. Ask before you book, and ask whether the policy applies to your appointment type.

How long will I wait for a standard appointment?

Standard appointments are usually a set length and cover one or two problems. If you have several things to raise, say so when booking so you are given a longer slot rather than being rushed.

What is the gap after the Medicare rebate?

The gap is the practice fee minus the Medicare rebate, and it varies by practice and by whether it is a standard or long consultation. Ask for both figures.

Is there after-hours care?

Some practices run extended hours and there is an after-hours home visiting service in parts of the state. Confirm what is available where you are, since rural coverage differs.

About medical centres in East Coast

The East Coast runs from Orford through Swansea to St Helens — a dry, coastal strip of holiday towns, oyster farms and vineyards, and the sunniest part of Tasmania. Towns are small and the distances between them are long, so the drive is part of almost everything here. Salt and strong sea winds are the defining weather feature, and the population swells noticeably over summer.
