Transport Assistance Scheme
This scheme is available for high-needs patients that are not able to attend their general practice due to transport difficulties. This service is offered at the discretion of General Practice staff, who will book the taxi for you if they think it necessary.
This service is not available for patients having ACC-related or cosmetic-related consultations.
Why is it needed?
Many patients do not access their General Practice due to transport restrictions. There are many health programmes that patients are not utilising as they cannot get to see their doctor or nurse.
