FAQs

  • What happens if there’s a technical problem?

    If the telehealth consultation fails (picture stops or freezes or sound stops) the doctor will immediately ring you on your mobile number to assist you or complete the consultation on the phone.

  • Is it secure and private?

    Just like normal doctor’s appointment, your Telehealth visit will be private and confidential. It can only be seen and heard by the health care professional involved. If you have any questions, please speak to your health care professional during the consultation. this healthcare service uses systems that meet recommended standards to protect the privacy and security of the video visits. However, the service cannot guarantee total protection against hacking or tapping into the video visit by outsiders. This risk is small, but it does exist.

  • How long is the appointment?

    An online appointment lasts for 10 minutes of face to face time with the doctor and allows the doctor another 5 minutes to complete other tasks such as writing letters on your behalf.

  • What happens if I need more time?

    If you need more time at the end of the consultation you should discuss this with your doctor before the consultation ends. The doctor may suggest booking another telehealth appointment or a face to face visit. There may be an additional or new charge for this; please discuss this with the doctor.

  • Are video and phone calls the same price?

    Yes. The cost is related to the doctor’s time rather than the technology used.

  • How can I pay?

    There is a secure payment portal as part of the appointment process. You can pay with EFTPOS, all major credit cards or by bank transfer. Payment must be made before the appointment is confirmed. Learn more about pricing and payment options.

  • Can I book for someone else?

    Yes, you can book for yourself or you can book on behalf of someone else. At the patient details step of the booking process simply select ‘no’ when presented with the question ‘Is this appointment for you?’
