GP consult items outdated? AMA wants seven time tiers with the following rebates…
The plan would cost the Federal Government around $4.5 billion over the next four years.
The AMA has called for a major restructuring of GP attendance items with new time tiers and new rebates.
It says the current items have not changed since the introduction of Medicare 40 years ago with the exception of the new level E item last year for consults over an hour.
