What Happens Now for Patients ?
Healthdirect Australia now provides the after-hours GP telehealth service across Tasmania. Patients can call 1800 022 222 any time for health advice. During after-hours, callers speak first with a registered nurse. If a GP consultation is needed, the nurse may arrange a free phone or video call with a GP. GPs can issue e-prescriptions via SMS and update the patient's My Health Record for continuity of care. For emergencies, patients should still call 000 or go to a hospital emergency department.
