Routine Health Checks
Routine Health Checks
Having a health check provides important health information for you and your doctor.
Staying on top of your health is important. It helps to identify potential illnesses or chronic diseases before they occur.
Prevention of identified issues is much easier and less costly than treatments.
Free, bulk-billed health checks are available if you belong to one of the following groups:
| Eligible Group | Frequency |
|---|---|
| 40-49 years with diabetes risk | Once every 3 years |
| 45-49 yrs with a lifestyle risk factor | Once during this time frame |
| Over 75 years | Annual |
| Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders at any age | Annual |
| People with intellectual disability | Annual |
| Former Australian Defence Force Personnel | Once |
