About MyMedicare

MyMedicare is a new voluntary patient registration model introduced by the Commonwealth as part of an ongoing commitment to strengthening Medicare for all Australians.

MyMedicare aims to formalise the relationship between patients, their general practice, general practitioner (GP) and primary care teams, with the aim to increase continuity of care and improve health outcomes.
