As a consequence of the covid-19 pandemic ,Medicare made phone and /or video consultations rebateable, but only for those recognised as patients of the practice, that is for those who have had a face-to-face consultation in the preceding 12 months.
Those patients who request a phone or video consultation if they have not had a face-to-faceĀ consultation in the preceding 12 months may do so ,but a a consultation fee of $50 without a rebate option will need to be paid upfront.
