The Government has announced that from 13 March to 30 September 2020, GPs are able to provide bulk billed Telehealth consultations to all patients with a Medicare card.
All appointments at our practice need be made as a Telehealth consultation initially. The doctor will decide if a face to face appointment is required after your Telehealth consultation.
Did you know that we can also complete your GP Management Plan, Care Plan or Mental Health Plan via a Telehealth consultation?
You can book your Telehealth consultation by phoning the practice or by booking online.
I feel sick, or someone I care for feels sick. What do I do?
You, or the person you’re caring for, should stay home. Don’t go to work or school. This is important to stop the spread of any illness. Get plenty of rest and drink lots of water.
CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: If you have travelled overseas in the past 14 days and you have symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat or breathlessness, OR had recent close contact with a confirmed case of Covid-19, please do not make an appointment at our practice.
Instead, if you are a regular patient of our practice, you can phone us to book a bulk billed telephone consult with your regular GP (further conditions apply) OR you can attend the Minor Injury and Illness Clinic (at Caloundra Hospital) which is now solely a Fever Clinic for Covid-19 screening.
**Testing for Covid-19 is only available to those people who have been overseas in the past 14 days and have fever or respiratory symptoms OR had recent close contact (previous 14 days) with a confirmed case of COVID-19.
**Patients who present with cold and flu-like symptoms, who do not meet the above criteria, will NOT be tested for COVID-19.
