MyMedicare
Vitalia Healthcare supports Medicare
What is MyMedicare?
MyMedicare is a new voluntary patient registration model. It aims to formalise the relationship between patients, their general practice, general practitioner and primary care teams.
How to register for MyMedicare?
You can register for MyMedicare using your online account or with your general practitioner. You can change or withdraw at any time. Registration for My Medicare is voluntary and free.
Enhanced Continuity of Care
Patients registered with My Medicare experience greater continuity of care with their chosen practice, resulting in improved health outcomes.
Extended MBS-funded Telephone Calls
Patients can take advantage of longer telehealth consultations funded by the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) with their registered practice.
Improved Aged care support
Starting in August 2024, residents of aged care facilities will receive more frequent visits from their general practitioner and enhanced care planning.
More appropriate care
From mid-2024, patients who frequently visit hospitals will have access to more appropriate care within general practice.
