Billings

Hey guys, I was speaking to a physician the other day, and they said a minor clinic visit at a walk in this Ontario city, for something like removing sutures, is only $33. I was under the impression that doctors bill above $50 per visit.

This article also indicates the billings are above $50 per visit to a GP. 

Any official source site I can find the billings?

If it's a new patient they should also bill a consult fee on top, if my understanding is correct.

Depends on the type of visit. I'm a specialist so FM might be different. Dufferebt provinces are set up differently too  

 

New patient with a new problem: consult fee (most cash of the three).

Returning patient for a problem that's already been consulted on and you are following: you can bill specific assessment (middle amount of cash) once a year. If you see them in between the year you bill a specific reassessment (less cash). 

 

Im a surgeon so the majority of my earnings actually come from procedures and surgeries.
