What every consult includes

Unlike some telehealth providers that charge separately for scripts, certificates, or referrals, NewDoc includes all GP services delivered during your appointment at a single price. There are no add-on fees, no per-document charges, and no surprises.

Your consultation is conducted by an AHPRA-registered General Practitioner with FRACGP fellowship. During a single appointment, your GP may issue prescriptions as eScripts sent directly to your phone, provide medical certificates emailed to you, write specialist referral letters, order pathology or imaging investigations, assess mental health concerns and create a care plan, or provide general medical advice and management guidance.

All of the above is covered by the consultation fee or bulk bill. There is no additional cost for any document or service delivered during the appointment.

How NewDoc pricing compares

Many telehealth services in Australia charge separately for individual items. For example, some providers charge a consultation fee plus an additional fee for each script, certificate, or referral letter. This can make the total cost unpredictable.

NewDoc takes a different approach. The consultation covers everything. If your GP issues two prescriptions, a medical certificate, and a referral in the same appointment, there is no additional charge beyond the single consultation fee.

NewDoc also does not apply surcharges for evening, weekend, or public holiday appointments. Pricing is the same regardless of when you book.

Bulk billing eligibility

To access bulk billed telehealth, you need a valid Medicare card and must meet current Medicare telehealth eligibility criteria. Most Australians in metropolitan and regional areas are covered under current provisions.

NewDoc verifies your eligibility during the booking process, so you will know before your appointment whether your consultation will be bulk billed. If you are not eligible for bulk billing, the private consultation fee applies and will be shown before you confirm your booking.

If you hold a Medicare card but are not eligible for bulk billing under current provisions, you may still be able to claim a partial rebate directly from Medicare after your private consultation.

Frequently asked questions

Am I eligible for a bulk billed consultation?

Eligibility for bulk billing depends on your Medicare status and location under current telehealth provisions. NewDoc checks your eligibility during the booking process so you know before your appointment whether your consult will be bulk billed.

Are there any hidden fees for scripts or certificates?

No. NewDoc includes all scripts, medical certificates, referrals, and other documents issued during your consultation at no extra cost. The consultation fee (or bulk bill) covers everything.

What payment methods do you accept?

For private consultations, NewDoc accepts all major credit and debit cards. Payment is collected at the time of booking. For bulk billed consultations, there is no payment required from you.

Can I claim a Medicare rebate for private consultations?

If you are not eligible for bulk billing but hold a valid Medicare card, you may be able to claim a partial rebate from Medicare for your private consultation. The rebate amount is set by Medicare and may vary.

Is pharmacy delivery included in the price?

Pharmacy delivery fees are set by the pharmacy, not NewDoc. Your eScript can be presented at any Australian pharmacy or used with pharmacy delivery services. NewDoc does not charge for issuing the eScript itself.

Do you charge more for after-hours appointments?

No. NewDoc does not apply surcharges for evening, weekend, or public holiday appointments. The same pricing applies regardless of when you book your consultation.
