   Medicare:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

   In addition to NDIS sessions, the Government will allow all vulnerable general practitioners and other vulnerable health professionals who are currently authorised to use telehealth item numbers, to use telehealth for all Medicare-based consultations with all their patients. This includes health care providers who are:<\/p>\n

   \n
   • aged at least 70 years old<\/li>\n
   • Indigenous and aged at least 50 years old<\/li>\n
   • pregnant<\/li>\n
   • a parent of a child under 12 months<\/li>\n
   • immune compromised<\/li>\n
   • have a chronic medical condition that results in increased risk from coronavirus infection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

     The Government has also recently rolled out a whole-population Medicare Telehealth service for anyone with a Mental Health Care Plan. It allows for up to 10 sessions per calander year.<\/p>\n

     These sessions are bulk-billed and available until September 2020.<\/p>\n
