With Hola Health, after-hours GP visits are bulk billed* for urgent care via a telehealth appointment for eligible patients. This means you pay no out-of-pocket cost. This requires you to be enrolled in Medicare. For bulk billing consults, you will need your Medicare card details. The telehealth consult begins typically in minutes, meaning no booking, no scheduling.

Please note: Hola Health bulk billing after-hours doctor consults are for urgent care and available to Medicare cardholders during these hours only: 11pm to 6:45am, 7 days a week
