Medicare

To make sure you are eligible for Medicare rebates on IVF cost, you will need to make sure you have a valid referral letter from your GP or specialist gynaecologist/obstetrician. We suggest obtaining one from your GP, as GP referral letters are valid for 12 months whereas a specialist referral is only valid for three months. Ensuring that your name and your partner’s name (if applicable) are on the referral, as well as the referral being made out to your specific Fertility Specialist or to Monash IVF will enable you to claim all the Medicare rebates you are entitled to.

All eligible Australian residents and some categories of visitors to Australia can enrol to access Medicare benefits. If you are unsure about your Medicare eligibility status, please contact Medicare on 132 011.
