My Psychiatrist 10 minute Telehealth Appointment is now even more expensive.

I have been seeing a Psychiatrist since October. I really like him, but his receptionists extract money out of every opportunity.

I have a monthly 15 minute Telehealth ( Code 91838) appointment. Last time it was $250, this time, without warning, it's $300. No Medicare rebate.

The call lasted 10 minutes and 16 seconds last time.

At this rate, it will now cost $30 per minute or $1800 an hour.

https://medicalcostsfinder.health.gov.au/services/Q91838/oh?specialty=023101 states 91838 appointments cost $185 on average, with $79 rebate.

So $106 out of pocket. I'll be paying $300 out of pocket.

Are the governments figures completely off?

I'd love to see what people are paying specifically for a 15 minute 91838 appointment?
