Have you heard about the new Government funding?
From December 1st, some pretty fantastic changes were implemented to provide people with greater access to primary care so that we can get you back to saving the world in no time.
The zero fee visits scheme for medical concerns has been extended to children under 14 years.
Here at Shorecare, we receive this funding when your GP is closed.
This means that after 5pm on weekdays, and all weekend long, visits for children under 14 years are FREE.
For injury related issues, funding has also been increased to extend the zero fee ACC visits scheme to children under 14 years, and lowering the cost of ACC visits for Community Service Card (CSC) holders.
What this means for you is that at all times, visits to Shorecare for an injury is FREE for under 14 year olds, $18.50 for CSC holders, and $12.50 for their dependants .

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.2% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.6% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.2% ... It is complicated
