Important Changes to Assignment of Medicare Benefits

ENGLISH VERSION 

 

Medicare has introduced new requirements for bulk-billed services.

As a result, patients who are bulk billed will now be asked to return to reception after their appointment to sign an Assignment of Benefit form.

 

What does this mean for me? 


  • You will be asked to sign a Medicare Assignment of Benefit form.
  • The form allows Medicare to pay your rebate directly to the practice for your bulk-billed service.
  • This will need to be completed after your consultation.
  • The process only takes a minute.


Why is this changing? 


  • This is a new Medicare requirement that applies to healthcare providers across Australia.
  • It is not a policy change introduced by our practice.
  • We are required to comply with Medicare's updated Assignment of Benefit process.


Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.


CHINESE VERSION 


Medicare 已为 Bulk Billing(医保全额报销)服务实施新的要求。

因此,凡接受 Bulk Billing 服务的患者,在就诊结束后需返回前台签署一份 Medicare 付款授权表。


这对我意味着什么? 


  • 您将需要签署一份 Medicare 付款授权表。
  • 此表格用于授权 Medicare 将本次 Bulk Billing 就诊的报销款直接支付给诊所。
  • 表格需在医生看诊结束后完成签署。
  • 整个过程只需约一分钟。


为什么会有这项改变? 


  • 这是 Medicare 最新实施的规定,适用于全澳大利亚的医疗服务机构。
  • 这并非由本诊所自行制定的新政策。
  • 我们必须遵守 Medicare 更新后的付款授权流程要求。


 感谢您的理解与配合。

메디케어(Medicare) 벌크빌링(Bulk Billing) 서비스 관련 안내


메디케어의 새로운 규정에 따라, 벌크빌링 서비스를 받으시는 환자분들께서는 진료 후 접수처로 다시 방문하셔서 급여 양도 동의서(Assignment of Benefit Form) 에 서명해 주셔야 합니다.


환자분께 어떤 의미가 있나요?


  • 메디케어 급여 양도 동의서에 서명해 주셔야 합니다.
  • 이 서명은 벌크빌링된 진료 비용에 대한 메디케어 환급금을 병원으로 직접 지급할 수 있도록 하는 절차입니다.
  • 해당 절차는 진료가 끝난 후 진행됩니다.
  • 서명에는     1분 정도밖에 걸리지 않습니다.


왜 변경되었나요?


  • 이는 호주 전역의 의료기관에 적용되는 메디케어의 새로운 요구사항입니다.
  • 본 병원에서 자체적으로 시행하는 정책 변경이 아닙니다.
  • 저희는 메디케어의 변경된 급여 양도 절차를 준수해야 할 의무가 있습니다.


환자 여러분의 이해와 협조에 감사드립니다.
