Important information for Australian consumers. Australian regulations restrict the advertising of prescription medicines to consumers. This article therefore covers monthly service-level costs only and does not display prescription-medicine prices.
For the full framework, see Costs in a Private Weight-Management Consultation in Australia. For the AU hub, see the weight-management hub.
Monthly service-level costs to budget for
| Cost component | Pattern | |---|---| | Consultation fee | Paid at the consultation; Medicare rebate where applicable. | | Prescription / clinical-assessment fee | Often bundled with the consultation, sometimes charged separately. | | Pharmacy dispensing fee | Paid to the dispensing pharmacy per script. | | Follow-up review fee | Periodic — often quarterly during ongoing treatment. | | Programme model fee | Monthly, where the service uses a programme model. |
The medicine itself is priced by the dispensing pharmacy and is not displayed on TreatCompare's Australian pages.
What to ask the provider
- Whether the consultation fee attracts a Medicare rebate.
- What the programme fee includes and excludes.
- The frequency of follow-up reviews and how each is billed.
- Whether any pathology, specialist referral or dietitian costs apply.

Frequently asked questions
What monthly service-level costs should I budget for in a private weight-management consultation?
Budget for the consultation fee, prescription / clinical-assessment fee, follow-up review fee, pharmacy dispensing fee and (where the service uses a programme model) the monthly programme fee. Medicare may rebate part of the consultation cost where a Medicare item number applies. The medicine itself is priced separately by the dispensing pharmacy.
Why does this page not list prescription-medicine prices?
Australian regulations restrict the advertising of prescription medicines to consumers. Pairing a brand name and price in a consumer context is treated as advertising under the TGA Therapeutic Goods Advertising Code, so TreatCompare does not display Australian prescription-medicine prices.
