NON-ATTENDANCE FEES

View Street Medical will issue an account fee to the equivalent of the cost of the consultation missed. This is where a person fails to attend an appointment on more than one occasion or provides less than 2 hours’ notice for cancellation. Failing to provide notice of cancellation or not attending an appointment reduces the availability of appointments for other patients.

SMS CONSENT

View Street Medical is now able to offer convenient early morning Telehealth consultations with one of our General Practitioner’s – Dr Rachel Forth.

To be eligible to claim a rebate, it is a Medicare requirement for the patient to have had a face to face/in person consult with a GP at the practice in the last 12 months. These appointments will be privately billed.

To make a booking please go to our webpage to “book online” for Dr Rachel Forth or alternatively call the practice and one or our reception team will be able to assist you with making a booking.
