Answer
Yes! You can still access PrEP without Medicare.
Pathology tests
In order to safely prescribe PrEP we need to perform pathology tests. Without Medicare, you will need to pay the cost directly to the pathology company.
The cost will vary between pathology companies and some may require payment beforehand.
During consultation, we can assist in providing you with the tests you require and refer you to a pathology company.
Prices range from $120 to $250.
PrEP Medication Cost
Our partner pharmacy can dispense a 30-day supply of PrEP for $49 if you are not covered by Medicare (PBS).
When you go through our online consultation process, when asked for a Medicare card tick the ‘I do not have Medicare’ box.
