TELEHEALTH APPOINTMENTS	Telehealth appointments continue to play a role in the delivery of care. To be eligible to receive your Medicare rebate you will need to have been seen at our surgery within the previous 12 months. Telehealth appointments are billed at the same rates as our in-surgery appointments. To confirm your booking you will need to provide a method of payment prior to consultation. Medicare have changed the way Practices can collect your consent for bulk billing telehealth. If you doctor makes a brief call to you for simple results and wants to ensure no out of pocket charge to you - then you will either only have to pay the rebate fee or complete a e-consent.

HOW DO I GET MY RESULTS ?	Your doctor will advise you when and how to get your results, however results will generally fall into the following follow up categories: For abnormal results or urgent concerns, we will contact you to make a follow up appointment If you have not heard from your Doctor it is always best to follow up your results by leaving a message with reception for a results call back from your Doctor. If you are still experiencing symptoms and your Doctor hasn't requested a follow-up appointment, please contact the surgery on 9416 7411 or book online to make a further appointment to discuss.
