General Information on the Doctor Search
This search facility is designed to inform you
of doctors who have previously participated or have indicated their
intention to participate in Access Gap Cover, as well as those who
have agreed to alternative no gap arrangements. Patients are advised
to be guided by the referral process initiated by their own doctor.
Where you have been referred to a doctor and that doctor's name
does not appear on this search facility, you should check with your
doctor as to whether they would use Access Gap Cover for you.
The inclusion or exclusion of doctors within
this search facility bears no relationship to their skill or experience.
The autonomous relationship between you and your doctor will not
be affected in any way. Australian Health Service Alliance does
not recommend or endorse any doctors.
Doctors' details contained in this search facility
are supplied to assist you in making an informed decision when being
referred to, or receiving treatment from a doctor as an in-patient
in an approved hospital or day hospital facility. Information is
current as at 7-1-2009
Please Note
- Where
a doctor asks not to be included on the list, we honour that request.
- Even
if the doctor appears on this search facility, it does not automatically
guarantee that the doctor will participate in Access Gap Cover
for you. Doctors are free to choose whether they will participate
in Access Gap Cover on a patient by patient basis. This decision
remains solely with the doctor.
- Some
doctors have arrangements at particular hospitals. Ask your doctor
whether they will use Access Gap Cover in the hospital of your
choice.
- Co-payments
may vary from patient to patient. Please ask your doctor if you
will have anything to pay.
- Your
doctor may have never used Access Gap Cover in the past but may
be willing to use it for you, therefore they will not currently
appear in this search facility. Ask your doctor if they will participate
in Access Gap Cover for you.
- Some
doctors who may not appear in this search facility, may also offer
services with no gap. Please check with your doctor.
