About New Specialist Referrals

A new specialist referral is a letter from a GP to a specialist that you have never seen before. It will state the reason you need to see the specialist and any relevant medical history. In Australia Medicare card-holders get a rebate when seeing a specialist doctor, if they have a valid referral letter from a GP.
