Telehealth Appointments

Doctor Consultations without The Hassle

Balancing work, family, and personal well-being can make it difficult to prioritise essential healthcare appointments. At Woodville Rd Medical & Dental Centre, you do not have to worry about fitting doctor  consultations with your hectic schedules. With telehealth appointments, everything can be done right where you are. 

As GPs, we understand the challenges of maintaining busy schedules—that’s why we offer telehealth appointments, a convenient and secure way to connect with our team remotely. 

What are Telehealth Appointments? 

Telehealth appointments let you see your doctor from home using your phone or computer. These are essentially virtual consultations conducted via a secure video call on your computer, phone, or tablet. This innovative approach allows you to receive expert medical or dental advice without the inconvenience of travelling to the clinic.

How Do Telehealth Services Work?

Booking a telehealth consultation is easy. Simply schedule an appointment with Woodville Rd Medical & Dental Centre like you usually do. At the time of your appointment, you will have a video call with your GP. 

Benefits of Telehealth 

Telehealth services are excellent for individuals who are busy or those who have trouble travelling. With telehealth consultations, you can get medical advice, prescriptions, and follow-up care from the comfort of your home. It’s safe, private, and saves you time.

Medicare and Telehealth Coverage

The Australian Government recognises the benefits of telehealth, and Medicare covers different telehealth consultations. However, the coverage eligibility of Medicare for telehealth depends on several factors, including: 

  • The type of service you require: To be clear, not all telehealth services are covered by Medicare. For instance, initial consultations for new patients typically require an in-person visit first. 
  • Your location: To be eligible for a Medicare-covered telehealth consultation, you must generally be in a designated area. These areas may include regional or remote locations or your own home under specific circumstances. 
  • Your doctor or dentist’s eligibility: The healthcare provider you are consulting with must also be registered to deliver telehealth services under Medicare. 

Luckily for Woodville Rd, our GPs and dentists are all eligible to conduct telehealth appointments with patients in and surrounding Merrylands, NSW.

Fostering Care Despite the Distance

Woodville Rd Medical & Dental Centre strives to give you different options to continue taking care of you. We make healthcare accessible by providing experienced GPs and dentists who are qualified to provide telehealth consults, providing treatments and prescriptions is just as easy as in-person appointments with us. 

Payment Plans 

Healthcare treatments can be a cause of worry for many people. Woodville Rd is a bulk billing clinic, where you don’t have to pay for out-of-pocket fees. If that does not work for you, we still offer different payment plans that will suit you. 

Woodville Rd also accepts OSHC’s No Gap Insurance for overseas students.
