This reports declared-area status, not eligibility, coverage, or billing. It is a free lookup. For programmatic or bulk access, the declarations API is an enterprise capability. How this works.

EmergencyAPI reports the declaration and funding activation status of Australian local government areas as published by government sources. It does not provide medical, billing, or legal advice. The decision to apply any MBS exemption rests with the treating practitioner, who must document the exemption and the clinical reasoning in the patient's clinical notes at the time of service (MBS Note AN.1.1).
