Telehealth

Consultations by phone or video.

Clinics and care

Telehealth allows some fertility consultations, results discussions and counselling to happen without travelling, with Medicare rebates available for eligible services. Scans, blood tests and procedures still require attendance in person, so a hybrid plan usually works best for regional patients.

Also known as: video consultation, phone consult
