At South Steyne Medical Centre in Manly, we believe that personalized, proactive healthcare is the cornerstone of well-being. Here’s why choosing us as your preferred MyMedicare practice can significantly enhance your healthcare journey.

Tailored Healthcare with Your Chosen Doctor

When you register your preferred doctor at South Steyne Medical Centre under the MyMedicare program, you are choosing to establish a lasting relationship with a healthcare provider who understands your health history and personal needs. This continuity of care ensures that your health is managed with a personalized approach, with treatment plans developed and adjusted based on detailed knowledge of your medical history and current health status.

Comprehensive Chronic Disease Management

Chronic disease management is a critical component of modern healthcare, requiring regular monitoring and adjustments to treatment plans.

Starting from November 2024, MyMedicare has introduced an initiative to support patients with chronic conditions better. By registering with a preferred provider at South Steyne Medical Centre, you gain access to Medicare-subsidised services specifically designed for managing chronic diseases, ensuring you receive the best care possible tailored to your needs.

Financial Benefits and Accessibility

For many, the cost of healthcare can be a significant burden. MyMedicare aims to alleviate this by providing financial incentives to practices like ours when they bulk-bill eligible patients—children under 16, pensioners, and concession card holders—for certain services. This not only makes healthcare more affordable for you but also encourages practices to prioritize patient care over cost.

Enhanced Aged Care Support

For residents of aged care homes, choosing South Steyne Medical Centre as your MyMedicare practice means receiving more frequent and comprehensive healthcare. Our enhanced aged care support, effective from August 2024, ensures that our elderly patients receive the attention they deserve, with regular visits and detailed care planning aimed at maintaining and improving quality of life.

Flexibility and Security in Your Healthcare Choices

It’s important to have flexibility in your healthcare decisions. With MyMedicare, you are not tied to one doctor forever. You can change your preferred doctor within our practice at any time based on your evolving health needs or personal preferences. Additionally, all your clinical information remains securely stored on our local servers and within your MyHealthRecord, ensuring that your privacy is always protected.
