Frequently Asked Questions
Telehealth for Providers
- What is telehealth?
You might be wondering what telehealth is. Put simply, it enables healthcare professionals to provide video consultations via channels like Skype, Whatsapp, Zoom and Facetime as well as standard telephone consultations. We refer to these as virtual consultations.
The federal government has recently announced new funding for telehealth in an effort to help combat the spread of COVID-19.
- Do I need to be in a Practice to process a Health Fund claim?
With Whitecoat Payments, you can process payment and claims from your home, your business or anywhere. All our receipts are digitally signed and location stamped.
- What security does the Whitecoat Payments Platform have?
Whitecoat's payment solution is housed in a highly secure IRAP and PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant environment.
- Can I use Whitecoat Pro if I'm a Personal Trainer, Yoga/Pilates Instructor, or don't need to process health fund rebates?
Absolutely. Whitecoat Pro is designed to help you request payments from your customers, even if it's not a health fund or Medicare claim.
To do this in the Whitecoat Pro, you can process the payment as a "Stock" item. Add a description and a cost then request the payment from your customer.
