What GPs Stand to Gain from The Changes

The Australian Government  implemented the most significant change to bulk billing in decades. With a $7.9 billion investment, all Medicare-eligible patients will become eligible for bulk billing incentives, and practices that bulk bill every patient will receive an additional 12.5% incentive through the Bulk Billing Practice Incentive Program

What does this mean for GPs?

Every Patient Brings an Incentive

Every single Medicare-eligible patient you bulk bill—regardless of age or concession status—will attract a bulk billing incentive.

More Revenue for Every Dollar Earned

Practices that choose to fully bulk bill will receive a 12.5% incentive on all eligible MBS services, shared between GPs and practices. That’s a direct financial boost on top of the Medicare benefit.

Significant Increase in Standard Payments

The Medicare payment for a standard GP consultation at a bulk billing practice will rise from $42.85 to $69.56—nearly 63% more than today.

Practice Growth & Sustainability

With higher Medicare payments and new incentives, practices can:

• Hire more staff

• Upgrade facilities

• Expand services

• Adopt better systems and technology

Stronger Support for Regional GPs

Bulk billing incentives will remain location-weighted, providing even higher incentives in rural and remote areas, up to 190% of metro rates under the Modified Monash Model.

Summary

This reform marks a major turning point for general practice – higher revenue, fairer compensation for GPs, and a stronger, more sustainable future for general practice.

Bulk billing has always been about providing care without financial barriers—but for many GPs, it’s meant lower earnings. That’s about to change.

Earn More. Grow Faster. Provide Better Care.

With increased government funding, bulk billing is not only sustainable—it’s profitable.
