Fees and Polices

Appointments

All consultations and procedures at Noosa Civic Family Practice are conducted by appointment. If you are experiencing an urgent medical issue, such as illness or injury, please inform our reception team when you call so we can assist you as promptly as possible.
Appointments are generally scheduled in 15-minute intervals. If you require a longer consultation or procedure, please let our reception staff know at the time of booking so we can allocate the appropriate time.
If more than one family member needs to see a doctor, please advise reception when booking so that additional appointments can be arranged.
Please note that emergency cases or extended consultations may occasionally cause delays to scheduled appointment times. We appreciate your understanding.
For continuity of care, we encourage patients to book with their usual GP whenever possible.

Patients who fail to attend appointments will be charged a fee of $60 for a standard appointment or $100 for a long. Please note that Commonwealth Senior Health Care Card holders will now be billed as private patients.

Due to changes in funding and Medicare rebate structures, bulk billing is no longer available for most patients.

To access this benefit, you must be registered with Medicare.

Prescription & referral renewals

All patients are required to have an appointment to renew prescriptions and referrals.

 

Patient recall

Patients are offered enrolment in clinical systems for specific illnesses eg diabetes, asthma. All patients will be recalled to discuss any abnormal results, however it is the responsibility of the patient to give correct and current contact details.

 

Home visits

We ask patients to make every effort to attend the surgery for consultations, however we will visit our patients at home, wherever possible, if their condition prevents them from coming to the surgery and if they live within a reasonable distance.

 

Patient feedback

Confidential and anonymous questionnaires, for patients, are supplied intermittently. If any patient of this Practice is unhappy in any area of care, we would appreciate being informed. Please express your concerns to your doctor or receptionist. An independent party is also available for complaints by contacting the Health Rights Commission on 1800 077 308.
