We are pleased to offer an online Script Renewal & Re-Referral Request service. Patients are able to request an updated Script or Referral from their GP via our website or the AMS Connect app, within the parameters of our Script & Referral Policy:
- You must have attended an appointment within the last 6 months (or within the last 12 months for the Oral Contraceptive Pill), and
- Your request is for a repeat prescription of one regular, continuing medication or a re-referral to a specialist for ongoing care
There is a $30 fee for this service. There are a number of clinical and administrative steps required in the process of generating a repeat prescription or referral and this fee is in recognition of this.
There is a 2 to 4 business day turnaround time. A script or referral required more urgently will require an appointment.
It is at the doctor’s discretion whether or not they are able to complete your request. In some circumstances, you may be asked to come in for an appointment instead, even if you meet the criteria above, to ensure proper management of your healthcare.
It is illegal for doctors to backdate a referral. Please ensure you have a current referral for any upcoming specialist appointments.
