Fee

Home » Fee
Sydney CBD Medical Centre is a MIXED BILLING practice.

All NEW AND EXISTING PATIENTS seeing
Dr Vinh Truong, Dr Arun Maji, Dr David Wai and Dr Yan Zhang
will be charged Private Fees below.
(Rebate claimable via Medicare*).
*Bulk Billing only available at the Doctors discretion.
 
For Dr Arun Maji's patients who do not have OSHC cover, private fee applies(starts at $120).
 
Bulk Billing continues to be available for Dr Greg Batty until further notice. Advance bookings recommended due to limited availability.
Dr Batty does NOT take walk in patients.
 
Bulk Billing continues to be available for COVID/Flu vaccinations.

 

No changes to OSHC/OVC Direct Billing. 
 
 
 

Why are we changing from Bulk Billing to Mixed Billing?

 

Bulk billing rates from Medicare are not increasing in line with inflation and considerably less than the Australian Medical Association (AMA) recommended rate. 

The change to Private Billing is necessary to keep up with the costs of running a medical clinic, to retain our GPs and to continue serving our community.
