are consultation fees with specialist doctors not covered by Medicare?

Hello guys! Just want to know if hindi na ba covered ng Medicare ang consultation fees with a specialist like in my case a pediatric surgeon? Sabi kasi sakin I have to pay $85 per visit eh iniisip ko ang mahal naman? This is in Westmead Children's hospital. But can it be reimbursed by Medicare? Thanks in advance sa makakapagbigay ng info!

I think somehow you can still be able to claim part of that 85... Maybe 1/3 of it.

Yeah it will get expensive if di kasala sa bulk billing.
