Since its introduction to healthcare, after hours home Dr services have transformed the way we think about medical care after hours.
It can be stressful to rely on outdated methods when a medical concern happens outside of normal clinic hours. Every parent who has faced a worrying late-night fever knows how it feels and likely has searched for an after hours medical clinic in a panic. Situations like this can double the stress.
That’s where we can help. In addition to convenience, 13SICK ensures your family’s health needs are prioritised by connecting you to a licenced mobile Doctor service capable of providing medical attention after typical clinic hours.
This way, you don’t need to worry about waiting for emergency room appointments late at night or finding bulk-billed telehealth GP services; you can even worry less about the costs too.
Here are more reasons why you should make the jump and see an after hours home Dr now.
Imagine it’s a Saturday night, and your child develops concerning symptoms – if you have a Medicare or Gold DVA card, you won’t have to cover any out-of-pocket expenses through 13SICK’s Doctor bulk billing service.
Expenses associated with healthcare can be stressful, especially when you need to make an unexpected visit to an after hours medical centre. Thanks to 13SICK’s partnership with Medicare, access to a home visit or a telehealth consultation from a bulk billing Doctor means you don’t have to worry about covering the expenses upfront. That’s because the service is billed directly to Medicare instead.
13SICK offers vital access to needed after hours Doctor home visits for conditions that aren’t critical but require prompt attention.
When GP clinics are closed and your GP telehealth service is no longer available, it can be challenging to find immediate care for sudden illnesses or minor injuries. 13SICK fulfils this gap by providing much-needed services outside the typical clinic hours. This service ensures that even when regular clinics are unavailable, you have access to quality medical attention, even at home.
The range of conditions our Doctors can handle for after hours home Dr services is also extensive.
At 13SICK, you no longer need to look elsewhere for GP after hours access; our network of Doctors is well-prepared to address a wide variety of common ailments, offering medical guidance for musculoskeletal pain, respiratory issues and more.
