The media puts so much focus on whether GPs are bulk billing or not.
Having to pay $20 to see one isn't the issue in my opinion. It is how long you have to wait to get an appointment.
If you are broke and have an emergency you can go to the emergency room.
Or if you are broke and need a GP they won't ask you to pay until after your appointment and then you tell them oops you left your debit card at home and then they will give you an invoice to pay later.
