Practice Fees

December 14, 2020 by Debra King

From Friday 1st January 2021 , our practice fees will be increasing.

 

Due to running costs of the practice exceeding Medicare increases, the following new fees are below.

We are conscious that some of our patients are unable to afford the fee; therefore we offer bulk billing to children under the age of 16, Pension/Concession Card Holders, DVA Card Holders

This change is required so that The Grange Family Medical Centre can continue to provide you and your family with high quality healthcare whilst also covering the ever increasing costs of running a business.

Your doctor will explain any additional costs to you and obtain your consent prior to any treatment received.

COVID 19 Update – Self isolation guidelines for people who have visited or travelled from Victoria

July 21, 2020 by Debra King

Dear Patients,

 

To ensure the safety of our patients and staff, I am asking that any patients of our practice who have visited or travelled from Victoria over the holiday break review the NSW Health advice.

Self isolation guidelines for people who have visited or travelled from Victoria

If a person who has been in Victoria within the last 14 days is already in NSW or arrives in NSW, they must self-isolate for 14 days from the time they were last in Victoria.

There are only limited reasons a person in self-islolation can leave their home, including obtaining medical care, complying with legal obligations, providing an essential service, in an emergency or to leave NSW.

Under the order you cannot go:

  • to work, unless providing an essential service and you should check whether your employer has additional requirements around work attendance
  • to school
  • to childcare
  • to recreation facilities
  • to public areas
  • sightseeing
  • shopping
  • to visit other people

You should follow https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/self-isolation
