How much does a WorkCover doctor consultation cost?

Nothing. If you have an accepted WorkCover claim, your doctor consultations are fully covered by the insurer. Even if your claim hasn’t been lodged yet, our doctors can see you and help get the process started.

Do I need a referral to see a WorkCover doctor?

No. You do not need a referral from another doctor or from your employer. You can contact us directly and book an appointment with one of our WorkCover doctors straight away.

How quickly can I get an appointment?

In most cases, we can get you in front of one of our doctors within the same week. We understand that delays can affect your claim and your recovery, so we prioritise getting you seen as quickly as possible.

What if my WorkCover claim hasn’t been lodged yet?

That’s perfectly fine. Our doctors can assess your injury, provide a Certificate of Capacity, and help you start the claims process. You don’t need an approved claim before seeing us.

Can I see a WorkCover doctor via telehealth?

Yes. We offer both in-person and telehealth consultations. Telehealth is particularly useful if you’re in a regional area, have mobility limitations, or simply prefer the convenience of a video appointment.
