Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common queries regarding Tasmania online GP consults.
Yes. All our doctors are AHPRA-registered, and AHPRA registration is national, so it covers Tasmania. You can check any doctor on the AHPRA public register at ahpra.gov.au.
No, but you need to be in Australia at the time of your consultation, because our doctors are registered to practise in Australia. This page is for Tasmanians, and other states have their own pages.
Employers and education providers can ask for evidence, and a certificate from a registered doctor is commonly accepted. Whether yours is accepted depends on their policy, so check yours if you are unsure.
You can take it to a collection centre or imaging provider of your choice. Ask the provider about costs and whether you need an appointment before you go.
If a doctor decides an eScript is clinically appropriate, it is sent to you electronically via SMS token or QR code and you can take it to a pharmacy of your choice. Schedule 8 and other controlled medicines are not available.
We can't help with emergencies. Workers' compensation, court, fit-to-work and Centrelink certificates need an in-person assessment, so please see your regular GP. A doctor will tell you when an in-person visit is needed.
We handle your information under the Australian Privacy Principles. See our privacy policy for details.
No. This is general information. If you are unwell, see a doctor, and in an emergency call 000.
