We charge a flat facility fee of $284 to all patients who use our Specialist Emergency & Urgent Care Clinic services. This facility fee has been determined based on operating costs and staffing costs with a view to sustainability whilst also meeting the needs of our local community.
All other aspects of care are at no additional cost to you (provided you are eligible for Medicare).
This facility fee allows us to run our state-of-the-art EUC facility 365 days a year, staffed by our highly trained and experienced team of Specialist Emergency Physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, and their support teams.

Our Specialist Emergency Physicians’ consultations and procedure fees are charged at the current Medicare rebate rate.
The fees charged for follow-up appointments will vary according to the type of appointment you require and the time interval between your initial consultation and the follow-up.
If our emergency team recommends the use of any consumables for your ongoing care and recovery we provide you with the convenience of purchasing consumables from our EUC facility for an additional cost.
