Medicare, bulk billing and IVF

Bulk billing is a payment option under the Medicare system of universal health insurance in Australia, where your health services provider directly receives the Medicare rebate as full payment for their services.

This means you are not required to pay any up-front costs for bulk billed services. Whilst the cycles themselves are bulk billed, it is important to be aware that eligible patients will still have some out of pocket expenses, as some expenses aren't covered by Medicare. These include fees for hospital procedures, some pathology tests and your medications.

To make an appointment at our Bulk Bill IVF clinic, call 1800 842 862.

Is IVF free in Victoria?
