From 13 July 2026, Medical Hub @ RMIT will be updating the fees for standard consultations and care plans
This change reflects the recent increase in Medicare rebates, as well as the rising costs of providing high-quality healthcare. We remain committed to delivering accessible, comprehensive care for RMIT students and the wider Melbourne CBD community.
From the 13th of July onwards, our new fees will be as follows;
| GP Related Consultations | Practice Fee | Rebate | Out of Pocket Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
Short consultation (Level A) | Item 3 – $75.00 | $20.55 | $54.45 |
| Standard consultation (Level B) | Item 23 – $100.00 | $45.05 | $54.95 |
| Long consultation (Level C) | Item 36 – $160.00 | $87.10 | $72.90 |
| Extended consultation (Level D) | Item 44 – $200.00 | $128.35 | $71.65 |
| GP mental health related consultation | Item 2715 – $170.00 | $108.95 | $61.05 |
| After Hours Appointments / Saturday Appts | Item 23 – $125.05 | $45.05 | $80.00 |
| After Hours Appointments / Saturday Appts | Item 36 – $167.10 | $87.10 | $80.00 |
If you are an enrolled RMIT student with a valid Medicare card or Medibank/AHM insurance, this will not affect you so long as you continue to book into student appointments. When booking, all you need to do is select “RMIT Student”, and it will only show the student appointments. Procedures performed will still incur an out-of-pocket cost depending on the procedure done, and more information can be found via our fees page.
If you are a RMIT student who does not hold the above mentioned, you will only be required to pay the rebate and claim through your elected health insurance.
Children under 16 years of age will also continue to be bulk billed.
For all other patients, standards fees apply for all consultations.
Thank you for your understanding and patience. It is still our number one priority to provide the best care possible for all patients.
