We respect and value all of our San GP Centre patients, many of whom we have developed a strong relationship with as Fox Valley Medical & Dental Centre patients over the past 15 years. We would like to invite all our patients to register with us in the MyMedicare initiative.

- Improve access and better integrated care
- Provide availability of longer telehealth consults.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does MyMedicare help us at San GP Centre?
Registering in MyMedicare will help us better understand our patients, their needs and help us cater our services to meet our patient’s needs.
As your registered practice, San GP Centre will be visible on your MyHealth records. MyHealth is one platform where all your pathology & imaging results, immunizations, health summaries, current medications, hospital discharge information and more will be uploaded. This will allow us to be better informed about your health and requirements, allowing us to provide comprehensive care with better health outcomes.
The registration will also provide incentives to the practice that will enable us to provide the best possible services to you.
Am I eligible to register in MyMedicare?
- To be eligible for registration, you must have had 2 face-to-face visits with our practice in the past 2 years.
- If someone in your family is registered, you can register with our practice without meeting this requirement.
Is there a cost to register?
No. Registration is completely free.
Can I be registered to more than one practice?
No. You can only be registered with one practice at one time. However, you can still attend any practice at any time.
Can I change my registration?
Yes. Registration is voluntary and you can change registration at any time.
Is my information secure and private?
MyMedicare does not hold any clinical information unlike the MyHealth record. You can read more about MyMedicare and privacy of your information on the MyMedicare website.
