PATIENT FEEDBACK QUESTIONNAIRE 2022 - RESULTS
BetterConsult is here
We're excited to announce that the doctors at our practice now use BetterConsult to help you get the most out of your appointment.
BetterConsult is a "smart" pre-consultation questionnaire that asks the questions your doctor usually asks about the reason for your visit. It then prepares a summary for your doctor.
Change to Billing Policy - Commencing 8 March 2021
We advise that from 8 March 2021, we will no longer routinely bulk bill children and pensioners, as we move to being a fully private billing clinic.
We will introduce a discounted fee, with the out-of-pocket cost for a standard consult being $22 (up-front cost of $60.75 with Medicare rebate of $38.75).
Children and aged pensioners will continue to be bulk billed for scheduled immunisations and simple follow-up appointments.
Discounted fees will not be available on weekends and public holidays.
In addition, our standard fees will increase slightly for the first time since we opened the clinic more than 3 years ago. The out-of-pocket cost for a standard consult will be $44 (up-front cost of $82.75 with Medicare rebate of $38.75).
We are back open for face-to-face consults!
Catch up immunisations for Year 7 and 10 students
eScripts now available
North Brighton Medical is now able to send patients electronic presciptions (also known as eScripts) under a new initiative of the Australian government in conjunction with the states and territories.
If you need a presciption, then during your consultation (especially if you have a phone consult), your GP will be able to SMS or email you a link to a QR or barcode token.
Then, you simply take your smartphone to a local pharmacy (provided that they have eScripts enabled, which most do), and they will scan the token and then fill your prescription.
Easy!
