ReadyMed provides several key online health services, divided into two streams: medical certificates and telehealth consultations (for referrals, eScripts, or treatment) with specific doctors, listed on the site. At the time of my review, this consisted of two highy experienced GPs.
Online Prescriptions: Eligible patients can obtain eScripts through a doctor’s consultation.
Blood Test Referrals: Doctors can issue referrals for diagnostic tests or a specialist if clinically appropriate.
Medical Certificate: Users can request and receive medical certificates through an online form. This can be complete without creating an account or Medicare card number and isreviewed by an AHPRA-registered doctor. If approved, certificates are delivered via email, typically within 60 minutes.
Telehealth Consultation: Users can book consultations for general health concerns, prescriptions, and referrals.
ReadyMed maintains transparent, flat-rate pricing, making it easier to know your out-of-pocket costs than with providers with complex pricing structures, such as AussieScripts.
ReadyMed’s website is straightforward. Users can complete their medical certificate request in under five minutes, without logging in or creating an account. The form is cleanly structured, and medical certificates are emailed if approved.From a design standpoint, the interface is mobile-responsive, though a dedicated app isn’tavailable. Compared to bigger providers with more servicesm such as InstantScripts and Hola Health, ReadyMed offers one of the simplest user flows. However, it does lack advanced usability features like in-app chat or record management for users.While mostcompetitors allow users to save profiles for repeat visits, ReadyMed focuses on speed and privacy over complexity. Overall, the user experience aligns with its purpose: a minimalistic platform for straightforward healthcare tasks.
ReadyMed complies with the Australian Privacy Act 1988, ensuring that all personal health information is securely stored and accessible only to authorised practitioners[1].The platform uses SSL encryption for data transmission and protects records through restricted administrative access.
ReadyMed’s privacy policy clearly states that no user data is shared with third parties for marketing purposes.
Overall, ReadyMed is a safe and compliant platform for confidential online consultations.
ReadyMed provides customer support via email. The response time is generally within one business day.
The support team handles inquiries related to service access, payment, and certificate delivery.
As ReadyMed is a smaller telehealth provider that has only been around for little over a year [2], there aren’t many user reviews available online – likely due to a low volume of patient requests, However, the absence of negative reviews suggests that ReadyMed’s service works as expected.
