"Many GPs stopped Bulk Billing all their patients as a result of the previous Liberal governments freezing of Medicare rebates"said Dr Marr

"Labors target of 90% bulk billed doctors visits will require continual reform of Medicare and no more Medicare rebate freezes as occurred in the previous Liberal governments time"said Dr Marr
