Medicare: IVF

My question is to the Minister for Health and Ageing. On 15 June this year in response to the government’s capping of the Medicare safety net for IVF procedures the minister stated:

Patients who see specialists who charge $6,000 or less for a typical IVF cycle will not be worse off under these changes.

Does the minister stand by this guarantee?
