Govt releases details of the $102 Medicare item for menopause assessment
Premature ovarian insufficiency could also be assessed using the new Medicare item.
GPs will need to perform a 20-minute assessment, including a physical examination and blood pressure measurements, to bill the Federal Government’s new Medicare item for menopause.
Patients with menopause, perimenopause or premature ovarian insufficiency will be eligible for the $101.90 rebate, according to a fact sheet from the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing.
