Hi Nick,
PBS stands for prescription benefit system, so it might be the like NHS but just for prescriptions. Most of the cost is covered by the government. Medicare is to cover the cost of services by doctors. From half to all of it if they bulk bill. For both these you need a medicare card, I guess but don't know, only available to Australian citizens. (residents?)
I live in the Northern Rivers part of NSW.
