MyMedicare

Village Practice has joined thousands of Healthcare providers across Australia in registering in MyMedicare, a new voluntary registration system that will help us formalise the relationship between us and our patients. MyMedicare allows you to nominate a General Practice and General Practitioner, as your regular Healthcare provider. When you register in MyMedicare, extra funding from the Australian Government becomes available to support our Practice’s ability to provide more of the targeted care you need.

Patients who register with our Practice in MyMedicare may benefit from:

• Longer MBS-funded telephone consultations, from 1 November 2023
• Longer bulk billed telehealth consultations for children under 16 and Commonwealth concession card holders at the new triple bulk billing rate, from 1 November 2023

If you have a valid Medicare card or Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Veteran card and have had at least two face-to-face consultations with us in the last 24 months, you are eligible for MyMedicare.
