MyMedicare lets you select your preferred local clinic and GP.

Have you signed up for MyMedicare yet? 

It records and strengthens the relationship between you, your local clinic, your GP and primary care teams. If you’re a regular client at a Moreton ATSICHS network clinic, you can select your local clinic!

What are the benefits of MyMedicare?

It’s voluntary and free to register for MyMedicare. When you register for MyMedicare, it will notify your local GP clinic that you have chosen us as your regular care team.

You will have access to:

improved continuity of care with your registered practice
increased access to longer MBS telehealth consultations for kids under 16, pensioners and concession card holders
longer Medicare Benefit Scheme (MBS) telehealth consultations with your GP.

Further registration benefits will continue to be added in time.

Who can access MyMedicare?

You’re eligible to register for MyMedicare if you have:

a Medicare card or Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) Veteran card
two face-to-face visits with your local clinic in the previous 24 months.

If you’re facing hardship, you will be exempt from all eligibility requirements, including if you are experiencing family and domestic violence and homelessness. Sing out to your local clinic in person or by phone and we can take you through registering for MyMedicare. Your story will be respected.

If you live in a residential aged care home, you don’t need to physically attend a clinic to complete your registration. Sing out to your care team and they can connect you to your clinic to register for MyMedicare.

If you’re a parent or guardian, your child can be registered at the same clinic as you. A parent or guardian must register a child under 14 and provide consent on their behalf. This registration will have to be completed at the clinic. Young people aged 14-17 years can register and provide consent without a parent or guardian.

What if I need extra support registering? 

You can ask your local clinic to start the registration process.

You can also fill out a paper form and give it to your local clinic. Ask your clinic to print it out for you to fill in.

Can I change or withdraw my registration?

Yes, you can! If you’re registered with a local clinic, you have the flexibility to change your preferred GP at any time.

Meeting eligibility requirements also allows you to switch to a different registered clinic, but you can only be registered with one clinic at a time.

You can also withdraw completely from MyMedicare, either online or by contacting your clinic.
