What is Telehealth?
Telehealth is the use of digital information and communication technologies, such as computers and mobile devices, to access health care and Exercise Physiology and Diabetes Education services remotely to manage your health. It provides you with the ability to receive specialist health care without the need to travel.
Why choose Telehealth?
Over that last few years there has been a revolution in health care happening with the emergence of Telehealth. It used to be that Telehealth was mainly used in rural and remote areas where healthcare professional weren’t available for face to face appointments. With COVID has come improved video technology, and the introduction of rebates for telehealth, and now accessing healthcare via Telehealth is now common place.
Telehealth has some significant advantages in eliminating travel time, being able to see your practitioner while at home or work. In addition Telehealth allows you to choose a practitioner based on their ability to deliver the best service to you, rather than just choosing a practitioner based on location.
Choose Optimum Exercise Physiology and Optimum Diabetes and you will receive best practice care from practitioners who are driven to deliver innovative patient-centred care. All you need is a laptop or mobile phone with a reasonable internet connection to get started.
Are Telehealth services rebateable?
As of 30 March 2020, Medicare will provide a Medicare rebate for items delivered via telehealth and DVA card holders are able to access private Exercise Physiology sessions via telehealth. Find out more about Medicare referred services and eligible conditions. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) also recognises telehealth as an alternative method of delivering therapy supports for eligible clients.
Private Health Insurance Rebates for Telehealth. Some private health insurers are offering rebates for Telehealth Exercise Physiology. It is best to communicate directly with your health fund to confirm their rebates for telehealth.
