Are you aware of the changes to the Medicare rebate system and the Safety Net system, that have come into place from Jan 1, 2016? Dr Sandeep Bhagat explains them in detail, as well as the dire need for hydration during the summer months in Australia.


It is said that January 26 is the day with the highest incidents of heat strokes in Australia - with people revelling in the outdoors on a public holiday, perhaps drinking alcohol more than normal, and forgetting to keep themselves hydrated while out in the sun.

 Dr Sandeep Bhagat explains why it is so important for everyone to think about hydration during the summer months, and also explains the Medicare safety net system for the benefit of singles and families.
