Bulk Billing Issues Remain

Share:


Federal representatives to the ACT have refused to say whether the government will restore rural bulk billing incentives to the capital.

Canberra and Queanbeyan were cut off from the incentives, which gave extra payments to clinics that bulk-bill pensioners, children and other concession patients.

Canberrans pay some of the highest out-of-pocket costs to see the doctor.

Senator for the ACT David Pocock says this has been a concern for years.
