Fees - BBMC ACCOUNTS POLICY
Charges for Virtual
Please note that when our staff book you for a virtual consultation, either for a phone call or video link with your GP, normal consultation charges will still apply. We will email an invoice (or post it on requested) after the consult.
If you book a virtual consult with your GP through the patient portal (Health365) online booking programme, normal consultation charges will also apply. An invoice will be emailed to you .
Our fees vary with the time taken and the nature of the problem.
GP Consultations
Home visits
After-Hour services
Nursing appointments
Completing forms
Immunisations
Materials
Prescriptions (medication requests)
Longer than average consultations (Attract a higher fee).
When the Government or ACC pays a portion of your fee on your behalf,
this amount is deducted before you are charged.
Fees are now also dependent on your enrolment status with the Primary
Health Organisation. We are members of Comprehensive Care PHO,
so that registered/enrolled patients sometimes get more subsidies
than those who are visitors or casual patients.
If you have difficulty affording health care please speak in confidence
to your GP or one of our staff. There are several ways we can help you.
