33029 (2025). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: Can a telehealth provider in the Government's new telehealth service use patient encounters to encourage enrolment with the provider?

Hon Simeon Brown: I refer the Member to Written Parliamentary Question 33026 (2025). I am further advised that where a patient is seen by a service, and that person is not enrolled with a provider, the service is required to provide enrolment advice and connection to an enrolling general practice.
