Appointments with a General Practitioner (GP) may attract a Medicare rebate (if eligible). Telehealth appointments with a GP can only attract a Medicare rebate if you have had an appointment with a GP in person at the clinic in the previous 12 months. Initial appointments provided via telehealth will be billed privately.
Appointments with a Registered Nurse/Midwife/Lactation consultant do not attract Medicare rebates.

These consultations include a Parent Fee and a Baby Fee. In some instances, individual circumstances may require your practitioner to spend a longer period of time with you and your baby. When this occurs, a ‘long’ appointment will be billed for the Baby Fee. This does not change the out of pocket cost of the appointment
