Where you can find the fees for every GP in Australia

For many, going to the doctor can be a financially painful experience. It can be difficult to find out how the prices of GPs compare in your area, never mind trying to find a bulk billing practice.

Thankfully, James Gillespie is trying to solve these problems, by creating a publicly searchable database, called Cleanbill, that lists medical centres by location, fees, bulk-billing and whether they’re taking new patients.

Today on The Briefing, Bension Siebert speaks with James about his database, what his data has shown about Australian GP billing practices, and why he's become such a thorn in the side of the federal Health Minister.
