We recommend you do a home RAT test before coming in if you have any cold or flu symptoms. </strong>We can do a COVID-19 PCR and swab for respiratory viruses if needed. Some of the symptoms of the COVID-19 can include<strong> sore throat, fever, cough, loss of taste or smell. </strong><strong> </strong>For more information see our <a href="https://student.unsw.edu.au/health-service-information-coronavirus" target="_blank">COVID-19 page</a></p></div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--components paragraph--view-mode--main-content"> <details class="accordion accordion--large accordion--js paragraph paragraph--type--sections paragraph--view-mode--default" > <summary class="accordion__summary"> <h2 class="accordion__title">Appointment information</h2> </summary> <div class="accordion__content"> <h4><strong>Telehealth appointments</strong></h4> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">The Health Service is now offering telehealth (video) and phone consultations as well as face to face appointments. If you would like to book a telephone or video consultation, please contact our reception team on <strong><a href="tel:+61293855425">02 93855425</a></strong> or you can make this appointment via our <strong><a href="https://www.hotdoc.com.au/medical-centres/unsw-sydney-NSW-2052/unsw-health-service/doctors">online appointment system</a></strong>. To be eligible for a telehealth or telephone appointment you need to have been seen in person in the clinic in the last 12 months. The only exception is if you currently have an acute COVID-19 infection. </p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">For telephone consultations we will call your nominated mobile or landline number. Video consultation will be via HOTDOC's - we will email you a link before your appointment. </p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">Please note: If you are new to the Health Service, register as a new patient with the online appointment booking form or fill out the new patient form here and email it to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#15607b7c7d707479617d55607b66623b7071603b7460"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="d6a3b8bfbeb3b7baa2be96a3b8a5a1f8b3b2a3f8b7a3">[email protected]</span></a> before your appointment. If you have not attended UNSW Health Service in the last year you will need a face-to-face appointment. All first time appointments need to be face to face.</p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">Due to medico-legal reasons we are unable to offer telehealth phone consultations or video consultations to patients outside Australia.</p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>Face to face appointments</strong></p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">Priority appointments are allocated each day based on severity of illness. We try to reserve appointments for on the day but due to unforeseen circumstances this cannot always be guaranteed. Bring your current UNSW student card and your Medicare card or Health Insurance card to your consultation.</p> <h4><strong>Fees</strong></h4> <h4 data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>Domestic student fees</strong></h4> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">For Domestic (local) students who hold a Medicare card there is no cost to see a GP. A small fee may be charged for some vaccinations and dressings if needed.</p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>UNSW Student Fee Iron Infusion</strong>- $100 out of pocket gap after rebate </p> <h4 data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>International student fees</strong></h4> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;">We offer Bulk Billing to enrolled international students of UNSW. This means that if you are currently enrolled and are covered by a Overseas Health Cover (OSHC) that we can directly bill, there will be <strong>no cost to you or your immediate family </strong>for seeing a GP. We are able to directly bill to Medibank, AHM, Allianz and BUPA. If you are covered by a different OSHC insurer, you may need to pay upfront and claim the cost back later from your health insurer. Please show the staff on reception your UNSW Student Card, and your Medicare or OSHC card on arrival. UNSW Health Service’s preferred provider is <a href="https://www.medibankoshc.com.au/unsw/">Medibank OSHC</a>. </p> <p data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>UNSW Internation student Fee Iron Infusion</strong>- $100 out of pocket gap after rebate (you will need to claim directly from your OSHC)</p> <h4 data-style="margin-left: 30px;"><strong>Children </strong></h4> <p>The health service is very welcoming of all patients and continues to be willing to see patients of any age. We have decided to alter our fee structure for children <16.</p> <p>There will be an out-of-pocket fee for children attending the health service who are older than 5 years, unless they are children of UNSW students.
