Telehealth. Done Safely.
Not all medical assessments require an in-person GP appointment. We offer telehealth where it is safe and clinically appropriate to do so.
Test Result Discussions
In many cases, test results can be provided and discussed over telehealth.
Repeat Prescriptions
In most cases, repeat scripts for longstanding medications can be provided.
Specialist Referrals
Referrals can be made in circumstances where you have had a recent in-person assessment by a Perth Home GP.
Mental Health
Telehealth is an excellent tool for managing many mental health conditions.
Respiratory Reviews
We provide reviews for patients with respiratory symptoms including COVID-19 and can prescribe COVID antivirals if required.
Paediatric GP Care
We provide care for a wide range of paediatric conditions and can provide referrals to a paediatrician if needed.
Pain Assessments
Some pain complaints cannot be adequately managed without a physical examination and may require a home visit or referral to ED.
Serious Illness
Some patients with serious illness cannot be safely managed over telehealth and may require a home visit or referral to ED.
Fees
We understand the importance of clear and straightforward pricing in healthcare. That’s why we’re committed to being 100% transparent with our costs. Please complete the simple form below to help you navigate through our fee structure.
Important information
If you’re enrolled in Medicare you’re eligible for the Extended Medicare Safety Net (EMSN). Once your out-of-pocket medical expenses reach the threshold (below) in a calendar year, Medicare will cover up to 80% of any further out-of-pocket expenses you have for out-of-hospital medical services that are subsidised under the MBS. You don’t need to register if you are an individual with no dependants. Medicare keeps a tally of all your out of pocket expenses and gap amounts. If you are part of a family or couple you will need to register online – that way you will reach the threshold sooner. You only have to register once.
EMSN Thresholds (2023)
$770.30 – Concession card holders or Family Tax Benefit Part A
$2,424 – All others
