1 July fee updates

 

Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) fee increases on 1 July 2014

As a result of a decision in the 2014-2015 Budget, only a handful of (mostly) GP services will be indexed by 2% on 1 July 2014.

Health fund fee increases on 1 July 2014

Some funds have elected to index fees from 1 July 2014, calculated on a pro-rata basis and only the benefit above the MBS schedule fee amount will be indexed.
