Over the last 12 months, Telehealth services have been life changing for many in need of support, which is why as part of the 2021-22 Budget, the Australian Government is investing more than $114 million to extend Telehealth until the end of the year.pic.twitter.com/1jlblb8otV
The extension will ensure that Australians can continue to see their GP, renew scripts and seek mental health support from the safety of their own home. This allows vulnerable Australians to feel protected and supported during these unprecedented times.https://www.health.gov.au/ministers/the-hon-greg-hunt-mp/media/universal-telehealth-extended-through-2021 …
From 13 March 2020 to 21 April 2021, over 54 million COVID-19 MBS telehealth services have been delivered to 13.6 million patients, with $2.9 billion in Medicare benefits paid. More than 83,540 providers have used telehealth services.
Why is there any additional cost? The phone consultation just replaces an in person one.
Please make it permanent.
There is an appointment book. It's fills up with appointments. The medicare rebate to the patient is the same irregardless of appointment type. Why is there increased cost?
Mental health needs longer consults so this is mischief verging on a lie.
Actually you're cutting rebates for phone consults from July 1. No more chronic disease calls, no more mental health calls, no more long calls for complex issues. I guess it's just 'tough luck' if you're too old, too poor or too rural for video consults huh?
I too was confused but the press release comment of mental health support when these items are being removed. We will have to wait and see the fine detail but I'm dubious of his convenient spin.
Surely it should cost LESS for Telehealth than face to face?
