COVID-19 GP Snapshot 1 - Telehealth
The uptake of GP telehealth services during the COVID-19 pandemic
The aim of this Snapshot is to determine the uptake of general practice telehealth services compared to face-to-face visits, including video and phone consultations, before and after the rapid introduction of the new MBS Telehealth Services item numbers to cover general practice payments for out-of- hospital patients, with the aim to cover this gap in face-to-face visits and reduce risk of community transmission of COVID-19.
