telephone prescriptions.
Posted: Mon Jan 13, 2003 11:10 am
Hi
One of the lines that I would adopt if I hadn't seen them for a while is that if they are getting mouth abscesses - or whatever - they must need some good constitutional treatment or that would not be happening. I also explain that I do not believe it is professional to prescribe over the telephone if I have not seen someone for X number of months.
If you really do not want to be bothered by patients out of hours - or you need cover whilst away on holiday or for a few days - I always give my patients the number of the Homeopathic Helpline. Its a premium line and costs £1.50 per minute - professionally run by good homeopaths - and it really makes your patients appreciate the free and more liberal time that they get from you

how to word in my charging schedule that these acute telephone consultations
entail a charge. I don't charge for any telephone enquiries from patients
that I see on a regular basis.
All suggestions appreciated.
