MyMedicare is a new voluntary patient registration model. It aims to formalise the relationship between patients, their general practice, general practitioner (GP) and primary care teams.
Seeing your GP regularly and formalising the relationship you have with your GP and general practice through MyMedicare can lead to better health outcomes. By registering as a patient of your chosen general practice and selecting a preferred GP, additional funding will be available from the government to assist your primary care team to deliver the care you need. It is voluntary and free to register in MyMedicare, and registration is open to Australians with a Medicare card or Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Veteran Card. All personal information recorded in MyMedicare, including your chosen healthcare providers, will be kept secure and your privacy will be maintained.
You can register for MyMedicare via your Express Plus Medicare App on your mobile device or ask one of our reception staff who can help you with a paper form.
