Now offering fully bulk billed consultations for all registered Medicare-eligible patients

Fully Bulk Billing My Medicare Registration Required Multiple Payment Options
Important Update: New Bulk Billing Policy

Dear Patients,

From 1 November 2025, Wallarah Bay Medical Centre will be trialling a return to full bulk billing for all Medicare-eligible patients for a six-month period.

This decision follows recent Medicare changes and reflects our ongoing commitment to providing accessible, patient-centred healthcare.

Thank you for your continued support.

Please Note:

  • Bulk billing will only be available for our existing patients who are registered with My Medicare at Wallarah Bay Medical Centre.
  • New patients and inactive patients (not Current on our Books) will require approval from the practice before they can be accepted or booked for appointments.
  • If you are a current patient, we request you to register with MyMedicare to maintain access to bulk-billed appointments. Registration is quick and easy through your myGov account or by speaking to our wonderful reception team.
  • If you are a new patient, please contact the practice directly on (02) 4394 0866 before making an appointment to confirm your eligibility.
  • The bulk billing trial is subject to review after six months. Any future changes will be communicated to patients in advance.
  • We are not an "URGENT CARE CLINIC" - for urgent or emergency matters, please contact emergency services on 000.

We look forward to continuing to serve you and your family. Thank you for your continued support of Wallarah Bay Medical Centre.

Kind regards,
The Team at Wallarah Bay Medical Centre
