📣 Medicare AoB Changes - Where to now?

The last few weeks have brought a lot of information about the Assignment of Benefit changes. Then last week, a significant update.

We know it's a lot to absorb, so we're hosting a free 30-minute session with Medicare expert Riwka Hagen to cut through the noise and get clear on what your practice needs to do now, and what you have more time to work towards.

📅 Monday 29 June 2026
🕒 12:30 pm AEST
⌛ 30 minutes

We'll cover:
✅ The government's last-minute changes and what's actually different
✅ Verbal consent, what it means in practice and how long it lasts
✅ Enduring AoB: who qualifies from 1st July and how to set it up
✅ What your practice still needs to do before end of June
✅ Digital and paper pathways and why you should keep preparing
✅ How HotDoc can help

No overwhelm. Just practical guidance. 👇

Great day at AAPM Educare Day Melbourne today! 🙌

It was brilliant to connect with practice managers and owners who are navigating so much change right now, from Medicare billing updates to the day-to-day of running a busy clinic.

We have loved the conversations, the questions, and the energy in the room. This is exactly the kind of community that makes Australian general practice tick.

We'll see you at the next one! 👋

Two Medicare updates your practice needs to know about.

✔️ Already live: From 2 June, the MyMedicare patient registration form has been updated by the Department of Health and Aged Care. If you use HotDoc's digital registration, you're already covered — no action needed. If you use paper forms, download the latest version from Services Australia.

📆 Coming 1 July 2026: New Medicare Assignment of Benefit (AoB) changes will introduce digital consent workflows for bulk billing. HotDoc will support compliant consent collection through our Medicare Hub in the HotDoc Dashboard.

We're hosting a webinar to walk through exactly what's changing with AOB and what to review before it takes effect.
