We went to Medicare Office @ Westfield here in Burwood… We just went over the counter and asked the staff on how to register on Medicare… We filled up some forms and were given a temporary slip so in any case if we’ll need to see a doctor, we can show the receipt or slip… We had just one number for us 3… and our names were just written in the slip.. and that’s it.. after a week we received a Medicare card already w/ our names on it.. J Reece, doesn’t have one since he’s still a baby… But he is already covered in our card…

Last week, I & Reece got sick so we went to a private family doctor, they had this registration for $55 but we got the $32 back because of Medicare… We just went to their office and claim the money :) weee!

Medicare in Australia is really great! It’s not expensive and you don’t have to pay anything when you go see a doctor…
