COVID-19: New Medicare and TAC items are available in Halaxy

As you may be aware, Medicare and TAC have recently released changes to COVID-19 services and items to better support practitioners and patients during the coronavirus outbreak. We'd like to let you know that your Halaxy is up to date with the latest changes.

The changes are summarised below:

• Medicare: further removed some limitations on when telehealth appointments must be bulkbilled only, and made available new telehealth fees available for some specialist professions - see MBS Online 20 April 2020 News - Changes to COVID-19 services
  
• TAC: added telehealth fees for GPs, medical specialists, psychologists, physiotherapists and OTs with telehealth fees for other professions to be added in the following weeks - see TAC Telehealth Fees Information SheetAll you need to do now is import these fees into your own Halaxy account to set your fee amounts – it takes only a few seconds.
