Three new Medicare Urgent Care Clinics have opened in Victoria as part of the Albanese Government’s plan to expand urgent care services nationwide.
Clinics in Warrnambool, Sunshine and Warragul have joined the federal network, bringing the national total to 90.
More than 1.7 million patients have used the clinics since mid-2023, including over 360,000 in Victoria.
The fully bulk-billed walk-in services aim to ease pressure on hospitals, particularly after hours.
Nine more clinics are set to open in Victoria in 2025–26.
