HotDoc is dedicated to helping keep healthcare affordable and accessible in Australia.

Why is HotDoc advocating against the GP payroll tax?

HotDoc is advocating against the recent rulings regarding medical clinics and payroll tax because it directly affects our customers and we believe that it will impact the ability of patients to access affordable healthcare.
Our research into this subject highlights that the imposition of these rulings are expected to lead to increased healthcare costs for patients and financial strain on GP practices. As an advocate and provider of software services to medical clinics and their GPs, we are committed to supporting the sustainability and effectiveness of general practices in Australia and in providing the best healthcare experience for all Australians This also means enabling better access to care.

What are the next steps in our advocacy efforts?

We plan to collaborate with some of our customers, the RACGP and engage with government representatives, and participate in public forums to voice our concerns. We will also be finalising research through our whitepaper and continuing to gather data to support our position against the payroll tax ruling.

How can clinics and patients provide feedback or get involved?

We welcome feedback and involvement from clinics and patients. They can contact us through our support channels, participate in surveys, or engage in our social media channels.

How can clinics and patients support this advocacy?

Clinics and patients can support this advocacy by staying informed, sharing their concerns with local representatives, participating in relevant discussions, and aligning with organisations like the RACGP, AMA, and other healthcare bodies advocating against this tax.
