How is health funded in Australia?
Medicare is a patient insurance scheme that was designed in the 1970’s to help reduce the out-of-pocket costs to see your Optometrist.
The Medicare rebate was never intended to fully cover the costs of providing medical services – it was a payment made to a patient after they had seen an Optometrist; to help cover some of the cost. “Bulk Billing” is when your Optometrist accepts your Medicare rebate as a full payment of services rendered, but this was not what it was originally designed for.
