Blood Test Referral Online FAQs


What is a blood test referral form?

A blood test referral form is a doctor’s prescription authorising you to undergo pathology testing at an accredited lab. It specifies the tests needed based on your health concerns or routine screening. TelDoc doctors issue these digitally after a quick consultation, valid at labs like Sonic Healthcare or Douglass Hanly Moir across Australia.

How do I get a blood test referral through TelDoc?

Simply book a telehealth appointment via our website—video or phone. During the 15-minute consult, discuss your symptoms or needs with a licensed Australian doctor. If appropriate, they’ll send your digital referral form instantly via email, ready for your chosen lab.

What types of blood tests can TelDoc refer me for?

Our doctors can refer for a wide range of common tests, including Full Blood Count (FBC), Lipid Profile, Liver Function Tests (LFT), Kidney Function Tests (KFT), and Thyroid Function Tests. Referrals are tailored to your situation—consult us for personalised recommendations.

Do I need to see a doctor in person?

No, Your referral is fully valid without an office appointment. TelDoc’s telehealth service eliminates the need for in-person visits. Everything happens virtually from home, with secure, compliant consultations available 7 days a week. If an in person consultation is required due to health concerns, the doctor will advise you.

How much does it cost, and is it covered by Medicare?

Consultation fees start at $49. Most pathology tests in Australia are bulk billed with a valid Medicare card, so you won’t pay out-of-pocket at the lab. TelDoc can also bulk bill appointments for patients who are homeless or babies under 12 months of age, provided they have a Medicare card and concession card.

What happens after I receive my referral?

Take the digital form to any accredited lab (print or show on your phone). Results are typically ready in 1-3 days and sent directly to the referring doctor. Follow up with TelDoc or your usual GP if needed to discuss outcomes and next steps.
