How to qualify for bulk billing chiropractor services
Choosing a bulk billing chiropractor means that a part or even your entire fee for the service will be covered through Medicare. For those who may not know, bulk billing refers to healthcare services provided at no cost or at a lower cost to patients.
In order to receive the benefits of bulk billing, you will need to get a referral from your doctor or GP. This falls under the chronic disease management plan. Speak to your doctor about a referral should you need one.
Under the chronic disease management plan, people are eligible for five free visits to a chiropractor per calendar year.

What is the chronic disease management plan?
A Chronic Disease GP Management Plan (CDM Plan) is a strategy that assists General Practitioners (GPs) in maintaining precise records related to a patient's health condition and treatment.
The GP, assessing the patient's condition, might consider it beneficial for the patient to receive care from an Allied Health Practitioner, such as a Chiropractor. In such cases, they will incorporate a Team Care Arrangement into the CDM Plan. This arrangement can allow a patient up to 5 rebated visits each calendar year.
To get your rebated visits, you need to consult your GP who will establish a CDM Plan and refer you to a chiropractor. Subsequently, you must bring your CDM Plan and Medicare Card to your chiropractic appointment where we can immediately process your $56.00 rebate through our HICAPS machine.
Bulk billing chiro: how much can you claim?
Medicare offers a rebate of $56.00, which might sometimes result in a 'gap' fee. Here are the potential out-of-pocket expenses you may encounter:
For new patients: $105.00 - $56.00 = $49.00 out-of-pocket
For the second appointment that includes an X-Ray review, the total fee is $85.00. After deducting the rebate, the out-of-pocket cost is $29.00.
For regular visits, the total fee is $63.00. After deducting the rebate, the out-of-pocket cost is $7.00.
For those eligible for concessions, the total fee equals the rebate, resulting in no out-of-pocket expenses.
