Bulk billing, health fund claims and discounts

Bulk billing

We bulk bill most eye examinations directly to Medicare.

Retinal photos incur a fee, as they are not yet covered by Medicare or most private health funds.

Reduced fees for retinal photography apply to pensioners, Health Care Card holders, Seniors and children.

Health fund claims

Our HICAPS facility allows us to directly process your claim on all private health funds.

Discounts

We offer discounts to pensioners, Health Care Card holders, Seniors and full-time adult students.
