Question asked
- Given that this week it was announced that the Tuggeranong Interchange Co-op, one of the only general practitioner clinics in Canberra that still provides 100 percent bulk-billing was closing, and that this clinic provides essential preventative care to LGBTQI+, women, and low socio-economic members of the Tuggeranong community, can the Minister advise what the Government is planning to do about the closure of Tuggeranong Interchange Co-op.
- Given Canberra already has the lowest rates of bulk-billing in the country, how does the Minister anticipate the loss of this clinic, which has 4,900 clients, will further impact bulk-billing rates.
- Can the Minister provide a list of clinics in Canberra that provide 100 percent bulk-billing services.
