You could charge a fee for bulk billing - interesting idea. Technically
illegal for the medical service, but ?legal for a financial service.
Worth a thought.
The biggest barrier to private billing is between 0 and 1 cent though -
cant see the punters being too happy.

My initial thoughts are that Bulk Billed patients don't stand to gain
anything from this system, but practices benefit by getting paid sooner by
Medicare for these consultations. Fair assumption?
