Billing Policy
Private Practice Billing
To facilitate the thorough and on-time service, it is necessary to bill privately for all ages. However, exceptions to this are given below to facilitate routine clinical care delivery.
The extended standard appointment is billed if there are multiple issues or a high complexity of issues which causes the standard appointment to extend past the 15 minute time frame. I will notify you if we are potentially going to run into this time.
See the page on the extended medicare safety net for information on how this can be utilised to reduce your gaps.
