Medicare rebates are available for eligible diagnostic hearing assessments when you attend with a valid referral from your GP or specialist. Referrals from Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) specialists are commonly provided following an ENT consultation and are accepted for Medicare purposes.

​

Please note that Medicare rebates apply to diagnostic hearing assessments only. Hearing aids, fittings, and related devices are not covered by Medicare and may be funded separately through the Hearing Services Program or private health insurance.

Yes. To receive a Medicare rebate, you must have a current referral from your GP, ENT specialist, or another eligible medical practitioner. If you attend your appointment without a valid referral, the full consultation fee will apply.

​

We recommend obtaining a referral before booking your appointment to ensure you are eligible for any available Medicare benefits.

Where possible, we process Medicare rebates on your behalf at the time of your appointment, allowing you to pay only any applicable out-of-pocket expense. Our team will clearly explain all fees and costs prior to your visit.
