The UCC is a separate operation to the general practice and provides free bulk-billed, walk-in medical care when there’s an urgent problem that can’t wait for a regular doctor’s appointment, but it isn’t a full-blown emergency.
The UCC is open extended hours, from 8am to 10pm daily (including public holidays). Please arrive before 9.30pm so there is time to be seen before the UCC closes at 10pm.
If you have a Medicare card, (or know the number), bring it with you when you attend the Medicare UCC.
After you have visited the UCC, a summary of important information about your urgent presentation will be provided to you and your usual GP so you can follow up with your own GP.
