• MyMedicare registration supports continuity of care with a patient’s regular practice.
• Patients can continue accessing all the services they normally receive, even if they are not registered.

What practices need to know

• Reassure patients that their care remains unchanged if they choose not to register.
• Ensure patients provide informed consent before being registered for MyMedicare.
• Let patients know the benefits of registering, for them and the practice.
