Register Now With Your Regular Health Care Provider
It is voluntary and free to register in MyMedicare.
When you register in MyMedicare, it will notify your general practice that you have chosen them as your regular care team.
MyMedicare patients will have access to:
- greater continuity of care with your registered practice, which has been demonstrated to improve health outcomes
- your chronic conditions management plans will be linked to regular practice
- longer Medicare Benefit Scheme (MBS) funded telehealth consultations with your GP are available
- triple bulk billing incentive for longer MBS telehealth consultations for children under 16, pensioners, and concession card holders.
There are multiple ways you can register with your chosen practice in MyMedicare:
- Start the registration process in your Medicare Online Account through the myGov app.
- Your practice can start your registration with MyMedicare or you can ask them to register you.
- Fill out a registration form and provide it to your practice. You can obtain this form from your practice.
MyMedicare registration will NOT prevent you from accessing care from other practices and healthcare providers for services that are not specifically linked to MyMedicare.
