Women who live in COVID-19 restricted areas may qualify for Medicare Telehealth rebates.
Eligible Australians in COVID lockdown can now receive Medicare rebates for WellFemme Telehealth consultations. During the COVID emergency, Telehealth rebates were initiated so that people at risk could avoid unnecessary face-to-face medical appointments. If you live in a COVID-restricted area this includes specialised GP services like WellFemme.
This is great news if you need help with symptoms of peri/ menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats, sleep or mood disturbances.
If there’s anything worse that being stuck in lockdown, it’s having to endure menopausal symptoms while you’re in lockdown! Get the help you need in “Iso”… online or phone consultations with a WellFemme menopause doctor are currently more affordable than ever.
What’s Included In The Consultation?
WellFemme is Australia’s first Telehealth menopause clinic. Our 45-minute initial consultations include a thorough assessment of your symptoms, medical history, medications, lifestyle and social factors. Depending on your needs and preferences the consultation can include:
- Menopause information
- Lifestyle recommendations
- Treatment discussions
- Prescribing of medications
- Referral for tests or specialist review
- Communication with other healthcare providers
Afterwards you will receive a detailed medical report with treatment recommendations for you to discuss with your usual GP. If your bank details are registered with Medicare we can also lodge your Medicare claim for you to receive an automatic rebate.
What Will It Cost?
For women in COVID-restricted areas our comprehensive initial consultations are less than half the usual cost with out-of-pocket fees under $100 (after Medicare rebate). They can even be bulk-billed for new clients living outside major cities who participate in our Pilot Study.
If you’ve been putting up with peri or menopausal symptoms for too long, now’s your chance to get the expert help you need. There are enough other things to deal with right now!
