Telehealth - Giving Members of Our Community the Edge over Our City Cousins
In 2007, for the first time in human history the number of people living in cities was greater than the number of people living in rural areas, and since that time the number of our urban cousins has increased much faster than the number of us here in rural Australia. Australia is one of the most urbanised countries in the world, with around 90% of our population living in cities.
For those of us lucky enough to live in rural Australia, most of us have no desire to live in a city, but one downside is reduced access to many health services. However, we have access to Medicare-funded telehealth services that our city cousins do not.
Here at Peppertree Medical we take advantage of the great service offered by Telecare, a city-based company who facilitate access to a range of over 70 different specialists working across 29 different medical specialties. In most cases an appointment can be arranged within two weeks, and most appointments are bulk billed if you hold a current Medicare card.
Book an appointment to see our doctor to discuss your concerns and to see if a telehealth appointment is suitable for your medical condition.
