Tamworth's Urgent Care Clinic is now open at the site of North West Health in the East Tamworth Medical Centre. Medicare UCCs will operate extended business hours, accept walk-in patients, and provide bulk-billed services resulting in no out-of-pocket cost to the patient.
Quality Healthcare with Extended Hours and Bulk-Billed Services
Tamworth's UCC is part of the Australian Government’s commitment to establishing 58 Medicare UCCs across Australia, including 14 in New South Wales. UCCs are expected to play a vital role in providing quality medical care to the residents of Tamworth and its surrounding areas.
Comprehensive Medical Services for Non-Life-Threatening Conditions
The Tamworth Medicare Urgent Care Centre will offer a range of essential services to treat non-life-threatening injuries and illnesses within a general practice setting, so that hospitals can allocate resources to more serious, life-threatening conditions.
