Bulk Billed Skin Cancer Checks
Specialist Skin Checks for Early Detection of Melanoma & Other Skin Cancers
At Knox GP, our experienced doctors offer bulk-billed, full-body skin cancer checks to help detect melanoma and other skin cancers early. That means no out-of-pocket cost for your initial skin check, regardless of whether you hold a concession card. We believe early detection should be accessible to everyone, so we’ve removed the cost barrier entirely.
If a suspicious lesion is found, your doctor will recommend a biopsy or removal. These procedures are booked separately and may incur additional fees.
Your Skin Cancer Care Pathway
Step 1: Skin Cancer Check
-
A comprehensive full-body check performed by a trained GP
-
Bulk billed for all patients
-
If something suspicious is found, your doctor will explain next steps
Note: If biopsy recommended, perform during initial visit (+$150) or return separately. Next appointment will be results review or excision based on outcome.
Step 2: Biopsy Appointment – $150 Out-of-Pocket
-
If a suspicious lesion is found, our team will recommend a punch biopsy to sample the lesion. This can be completed during your initial visit, or you may choose to return separately.
-
Includes local anaesthetic, sterile consumables, and wound care materials
-
Sample sent to pathology, results available within 1–2 weeks
Step 3: Results Review or Excision
Option A: Results Review – Bulk Billed for all patients (Telehealth Appointment)
- Review of pathology results.
- Discussion of any further management, such as monitoring or specialist referral
Option B: Excision Procedure
- Skin Excision (Simple) – $200
- Skin Excision (Complex/Multiple Sutures) – $250
- If a lesion requires removal, the doctor will perform a minor surgical excision. This includes the procedure, all consumables, and aftercare
Important Note: All fees will be clearly explained to you before any procedure. There are no hidden costs. Our team will ensure you have the information you need to make the best decisions for your health.
