What does a Mount Lawley after hours GP do?
Our doctors provide home visit care to patients in the Mount Lawley region during the after hours period when most GPs are not available. They are able to review a large number of medical problems and in most cases can prevent patients from having to attend Royal Perth Hospital, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital or the Childrens Hospital Emergency Departments. Before attending your home for a consultation, our doctor will give you a call to discuss your condition and offer initial treatment advice. This is a valuable additional service that are doctors provide for free and goes a long way to reducing anxiety of patients, parents and carers. Our doctors carry a large selection of medications to get your treatment started so you don’t need to worry about heading to a late night pharmacy. After your visit, your doctor will send a copy of your consultation notes to your regular GP so they can take over your care.

What is an after hours GP?
Most practitioners working at Night Doctor also work in local GP practices or public hospitals. All our doctors have experience in the Australian healthcare system and meet strict selection criteria. All doctors are registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Authority (AHPRA). To learn more about the doctors who will be looking after you, please see their doctor profiles.
What does a home visit cost?
We bulk bill all patients in nursing homes and disablity care homes, as well as all DVA Gold patients. For all other patients a small fee applies. We do not accept cash. Payment can be made in the visit by credit or debit card and often Medicare rebates can be processed into your account during the visit. You can split payments across multitple cards if you wish. For more information about our fees, please see our fees page or call and speak to our receptionist.

Home visit rates
|
Out-of-pocket fee (the gap) |
Max up-front consultation fee (incl. the gap) |
|
|---|---|---|
| Booking before 9pm | $125.00 | $276.45 |

Medicare will pay for most of the cost of your visit. Medicare requires us to take the gap payment + the Medicare rebate upfront. You will be issued a receipt to allow you to claim your rebate back from Medicare. Speak to our receptionist to learn more.
Telehealth rates
The fee for telehealth depends on the length of the consultation and the start time of the consultation.
Consultation starting before 11pm:
| Length of consultation |
Consultation fee
(Medicare rebate**) |
Gap | Total fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Less than 6 mins | $20.05 | $60.00 | $80.05 |
| 6–19 mins | $43.90 | $60.00 | $103.90 |
| 20–39 mins | $84.90 | $60.00 | $144.90 |
| 40 minutes or more | $125.10 | $60.00 | $185.10 |
**Some patients will be eligible to claim Medicare rebates for Telehealth performed by Night Doctor. Please see this FAQ for more information.
Consultation starting after 11pm:
Urgent conditions
Urgent conditions consulted after 11pm are bulk billed.
After 11pm there is a Medicare rebate for all patients with urgent conditions. In order to access this rebate Medicare requires the Doctor to justify that you have an urgent condition (i.e. your condition is at risk of deteriorating before 8am the next morning). The consultation must take place over a video call rather than a standard phone call.
Non-urgent conditions
If the Doctor cannot justify to Medicare that your condition is at risk of deterioration before 8am, they cannot charge the urgent item and the fees for consultations before 11pm will apply instead.
Determining what is urgent is difficult, as very little guidance is provided by Medicare. Our receptionists can run your issue past the doctor prior to your consultation and can let you know if you will be bulk billed or if a fee will apply.
We understand this situation is not ideal but we are trying to do the best we can to help patients and operate within Medicare billing guidelines.

Unfortunately we cannot bulk-bill DVA Gold cardholders as the cost of providing high-quality care after hours cannot be covered without charging a gap. Therefore we must bill the patient as Medicare with concession. The following fees apply.
