Medical Practice Telehealth Appointments

Your GP can speak to you using the telephone or a videolink. We look forward to supporting you in whatever way we can to ensure you receive care when you need it. 

What is Telehealth?

Telehealth provides you with the ability to book a phone call or video appointment with your doctor from the comfort and safety of your home or workplace. Having a consultation by telephone, or video conference, will allow you access to your doctor to discuss your health concerns without having to come into the practice.

How do I make an appointment?

Please call our reception team on 9810 3000 to schedule a telehealth appointment or book online. Please make sure we have your best contact number on file so your doctor can call you. You will be provided with detailed instructions on how to conduct your appointment.

How much does it cost?

The out-of-pocket fee for Richmond and Hawthorn medical practice appointments is $45.00.

You need to pay for the cost of your consultation on the day of your appointment. We accept EFTPOS, credit card* or cash. We can claim your Medicare rebate on the day. Your rebate will be deposited into your nominated bank account within 48 hours.

Bulk billing is available for people who have a Medicare card and are:

Health Care Card Holders (except Commonwealth Seniors Health Card)
Pension Card Holders
DVA Card Holders
Children under 16 years
Aboriginal and or Torres Strait Islander Peoples
Refugees
NDIS clients

Any patient who is at risk of COVID-19 infection is eligible for a Medicare funded telephone or video appointment.

All eligible Medicare telephone/video appointments will be bulk billed. This means there will be no ‘out of pocket’ expense to you.

*We do not accept American Express (Amex) cards.

As always, we take our patients’ individual circumstances into consideration. Please discuss this with your doctor. They will bulk bill where possible.

Will I get an appointment reminder?

You will receive an SMS (text message) from AccessHC confirming the date and time of your telehealth phone or video consultation. There is no need for you to come into the clinic.

What happens when it’s my telephone appointment time?

The doctor will phone you as close as they can to your appointment time. We recommend having your phone nearby. You will need to be available for up to one hour after your allocated appointment time in case your doctor has been held up. The doctor will only call twice. If you do not pick up you will miss your appointment.

What happens when it’s my video appointment time?

You will need access to a smart phone, tablet, laptop or computer. You would have received an email with a ‘video link’ when you made your appointment. At your appointment time you will need to join the meeting for up to one hour. The GP will try to join twice and if you are not there you will miss your appointment.

What if I need to see the doctor at the clinic?

No patients will be able to attend the clinic for a face to face consultation with their doctor unless they have had a telehealth appointment with that doctor first. During your telehealth phone/video consultation the doctor can arrange a time for you to come into the clinic for further assessment if required.

What if I need a script, pathology form or referral?

All prescriptions, pathology forms and referrals can be done during your telehealth appointment. Your doctor will either email, post of fax these out.
