Seven weeks ago, our average case numbers were peaking at more than 400 every single day. Today, Melbourne’s rolling case average is 22.1. It’s a remarkable thing – and an achievement that belongs to every single Victorian. Because with grit and with guts and with heart – we are beating this thing. We are driving it down. We are winning.

The Wednesday Warriors were conducting a raffle for a trailed load of firewood. Hopefully, the weather will return to nice Spring warmth before too much more word is needed to keep us warm.

OSMI are pleased to announce they have secured office space at 52 Ridgway in Mirboo North (the old newsagency) and so their reopening will be in this new location. They are giving it a bit of a spruce up first and are hopeful they can move in around mid-October.
Medicare have extend funding for bulk billed Telehealth consults with your regular GP for eligible patients until 31st March 2021.
However from 1st October Medicare will cease their current incentive payments to GPs to support patients at risk of COVID being bulk billed. Therefore our usual out of pockets fees for non concession card holders and over 18 year olds apply to patients seen in our clinic from that date.
Concession card holders and under 18’s will continue to be bulk billed by our GPs for all Medicare re-bateable services, whether these be via telehealth or ‘in person’ consultations.
