GPs finally get telehealth MBS items to tackle coronavirus outbreak
'Vulnerable' patients and those in home quarantine will be eligible for MBS-funded telehealth from Friday
GPs will have access to MBS-funded phone or online consults for patients in home isolation as part of the Federal Government’s plan to tackle the coronavirus outbreak.
With under 48 hours to go before the item is introduced on Friday, key details remain unclear, but Australian Doctor has been told it will have the same rebate as a level B attendance — $38.20.
