In VIC that sits alongside a Working with Children Check from the Service Victoria (paid $139.20, valid 5 years) when your role involves children.

From 1 July 2025, a Victorian medical centre's GP wages are exempt from payroll tax to the extent they relate to fully-funded (bulk-billed) items, so the relief is proportional to the practice bulk-billing share rather than blanket. This lifts the realistic service-fee floor for bulk-billing-dominant arrangements. Sessional runs the classifier per shift (workplace state, profession, income source, date) and flags where the exemption is likely to apply, so your service-fee negotiation is evidence-led.

Yes. Sessional stores a provider number per workplace, not per user, because Medicare requires a separate provider number for each physical location. When you add a Victoria clinic, Sessional prompts for the associated provider number and ties it to your invoices and Medicare billings from that site. Historical provider numbers stay searchable even after you leave a workplace.
