Virtual GP/ After Hours GP - Work from Home

Your career in healthcare made personal

At Medibank we’ve recently unified our health services under one brand – Amplar Health. 

With over 1000 employees, our nurses, GPs and other amazing allied health professionals our focus is on improving healthcare experiences and championing greater access, choice, and control for people in Australia when it comes to managing their health. 

The Opportunity

Working in small team of GPs and triage nurses, our After-Hours General Practitioners (AHGPs) perform a vital role providing the delivery of virtual GP telephone and video consultations across all age groups and a variety of clinical presentations. Callers have come via the Health Direct nurse triage service and are escalated if their symptoms and presentation warrant a medical review. The role operates within an approved scope of service and is designed to improve access to general practice services. 

You will be provided with the equipment and technology to enable you to work from home – so this is a great flexible option to extend your career.

You will need to be able to work a minimum of 8 hours per week (we can offer up to 37.5 hrs per week) across 6pm to midnight on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday and 12 noon to midnight on Saturdays. Shifts can range from blocks of 2 to 8 hours.

This initial engagement is until 31st January 2025.

In addition, you will need the following tools to do your job:

• Home Office – private space
• Reliable internet connection
• An active phone line in the same room as your workspace. We will provide a modem to ensure calls are secure. 
• Be available for 2 full days paid virtual training 9-5pm in 12/13th or 26/27th June or 10th/11th July

About You 

This role suits a Medical Practitioner with full AHPRA registration and a minimum 3 years full time equivalent experience working as a General Practitioner (at least 1 of these years must be spent in Australian General Practice).

As a virtual GP you will need to be comfortable communicating through audio and video mediums but also able to collaborate with your wider team through various digital tools and collaborative software such as MS Teams.

Your Benefits

• Our 2030 vision is to be the healthiest workplace in Australia – so we embrace a healthier way of working by providing you with flexibility in how, when and where you conduct your work. As such, this role has lots of freedom to work from home.
