Enrolment
Choosing to enrol in our care brings with it responsibility on both our parts. As enrolment attracts funding from the state, it is the responsibility of Coast to Coast Health Care to provide you with quality primary healthcare which is as low cost to you as possible. But in return, it is the responsiblity of the person enrolling to use our services - for not to do so, will involve the transfer of funds from our service to that which you use, thus compromising our capacity to keep the cost to you low.
Clearly there are times when using our service is not possible. e.g while away on holiday. Otherwise we encourage you to do so. However we continue to support your right to utilise the practitioner or service of your choice but suggest in doing so, you may choose to enrol with them and thus encourage you to utilise their services.
