Frequently asked questions

Service‑specific

What is CALLaDoc’s approach to medicinal cannabis prescribing ?

Medicinal Canabis is considered after thorough assessment and when standard options have been tried or are unsuitable.

We avoid one‑size‑fits‑all prescribing; treatment is never automatic.

Includes goals, dosing strategy, monitoring, safety/driving advice, and an exit/step‑down plan.

Am I eligible for medicinal cannabis?
Eligibility depends on your symptoms, prior treatments, and clinical judgement. Your clinician will evaluate whether benefits outweigh risks and whether alternatives remain appropriate.

Most products are unapproved medicines; assessed case‑by‑case.

SAS‑B or Authorised Prescriber (AP), completed by your doctor if clinically suitable.

Extra requirements may apply for Schedule 8 items; we guide you through them.

Informed consent covers benefits/risks, alternatives, interactions, and driving laws.

Will doctors at CALLaDoc prescribe for everyone who asks?

Clinical discretion : Prescribing depends on need, safety, and evidence for your situation.

When we don’t prescribe : High‑risk scenarios, unsuitable indications, or where in‑person review is safer.

Alternatives : We discuss other treatments or arrange in‑person care if indicated.

Can every clinician prescribe in my state?
Prescribing pathways vary by jurisdiction and medicine category. Your clinician will advise whether additional approvals or steps are required in your location.
How do follow‑ups work?
Follow‑ups monitor progress and safety, and adjust therapy if needed. Scheduling and frequency depend on your plan and response to treatment.

General CALL@Doc FAQs

What counts as after‑hours and how is the +25% applied?
After‑hours includes weekday evenings (6:00 PM–8:00 AM), weekends, and NSW public holidays. A 25% uplift is applied to standard fees during these times. See the full policy: After‑hours fee details.
Are Medicare rebates available for telehealth?
Eligibility depends on your circumstances and current Medicare rules. Where applicable, we’ll advise during your consult if a rebate may apply and what evidence is required.
Do I need ID or medical history to book?
Yes. To maintain safety and regulatory compliance, we may require photo ID and relevant medical history. You’ll be guided through secure submission during booking.
How fast will I receive my eScript or certificate?
Most eScripts and certificates are issued shortly after your consult if clinically appropriate—often the same day. You’ll receive them digitally via SMS/email.
Can you prescribe Schedule 8 or restricted medications?
Some medicines (e.g., Schedule 8) have stricter rules or may need an in‑person assessment. Your clinician will advise if telehealth is appropriate; otherwise you’ll be referred accordingly. Learn more: Prescriptions.
