New Patient Information
We are accepting new patients.
To register, simply book an appointment online. AutoMed will send you a new patient registration form to complete before your visit. Alternatively, please contact reception and we can email the form to you.
Fee Schedule
Our standard fees for consultations are as follows:
Failure to Attend Policy
If you are unable to attend your appointment, please let us know as soon as possible. We require at least 3 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. If you do not attend or provide sufficient notice, a did-not-attend (DNA) fee will apply. This fee is typically $50 for standard appointments and fee might be higher for longer appointments.
Workcover & MVA
We offer WorkCover and Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) consultations. If your appointment relates to WorkCover or an MVA claim, please advise reception before your appointment, as additional paperwork will need to be completed before you see the GP.
The initial account must be paid privately on the day. We will provide an invoice that you can submit to your claim manager.
WorkCover and Motor Vehicle Accident accounts remain the patients responsibility.
Please ensure your WorkCover claim has been submitted and notify us of your claim number as soon as its available.
For Motor Vehicle Accident claims, please identify your Compulsory Third Party insurer and advise us as soon as possible. Details on how to find your insurer are available at http://www.ctp.sa.gov.au/insurere.html
Non-Medicare Holders
Patients without a Medicare are welcome to attend our clinic. Please note that we do not complete private insurance claims on behalf of patients. We will provide an invoice by print or email for you to submit to your insurer.
Vaccinations
Government-funded vaccinations are available free of charge to eligible patients with a Medicare card. Appointment fees may still apply. For patients without a Medicare card, we are unable to provide catch-up vaccinations. We will update the Australian Immunization Register (AIR) for immunisations not provided through our clinic if you are able to supply evidence of vaccination. If you need assistance with AIR, please contact AIR directly on 1800 653 809, visit your nearest Medicare or Centerlink Service Centre, or contact your local council for information about nearby vaccination centeres.
Travel Vaccination advice is available, and prescriptions for recommended vaccinations can be organized during your appointment.
Appointment Etiquette
One appointment required per person - this allows us to provide timely and thorough care for all patients. Each appointment is allocated for one individual only.
