Frequently Asked Questions
For telehealth only providers, Medicare rebates are generally not available.
For local GPs offering telehealth services, Medicare rebates are generally limited to where you have an existing relationship as defined by:
- where you are registered in MyMedicare and the service is provided by your registered practice
- when you have previously had a face-to-face appointment with the GP performing the service or another GP at the same practice in the last 12 months
- where a practice is a participant in the Approved Medical Deputising Service program, and the Approved Medical Deputising Service provider employing the medical practitioner has a formal agreement with a general practice that has provided at least one face-to-face service to the patient in the 12 months preceding the telehealth attendance.
Under legislation, the existing relationship requirement does not apply in some limited situations which can be found on the Medicare Benefits Schedule website.
For a video consult any smartphone or computer with a camera, speaker, and microphone will work. Your telehealth video consult will open in web browser so there’s no need to download any additional software.
