What is MyMedicare?

MyMedicare is a new voluntary patient registration model. It aims to strengthen the
relationship between patients, their general practice, general practitioner and primary care
teams. You can formally register with us as your usual general practice or register with your
preferred doctor.

What is the goal?

The goal of MyMedicare is to strengthen the relationship you have with your preferred
medical centre or preferred GP. By attending the same clinic and visiting the same GP
consistently for your appointments, our team and your doctor can provide you with better
ongoing care.
