MYMEDICARE
Formalising the patient-practice relationship, like with MyMedicare, has been shown to improve health and wellbeing, and that is why we are inviting all our regular patients to register in MyMedicare.
If you have a valid Medicare card or Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Veteran card and have had two face-to-face consultations with us in the last 24 months, you are eligible for MyMedicare.
What is MyMedicare?
MyMedicare is a completely voluntary and free service that helps streamline the relationship between patients and their primary healthcare team. By registering with MyMedicare through Diggers Rest Medical Centre, you will benefit from improved continuity of care, ensuring a stronger partnership with your doctor and better health outcomes.
Benefits of MyMedicare
One of the significant advantages of registering for MyMedicare with us is access to longer Telehealth consultations covered by Medicare rebates. This allows for more comprehensive discussions about your health needs, wherever you are.
