As a reminder, on-call services of a personal physician are provided to adults and children who are beneficiaries of the GHS on weekends and public holidays and relate to the provision of health care for emergency problems such as the acute onset of worrying symptoms, sudden and severe pain, aggravation of symptoms of a serious chronic illness, high fever accompanied by other symptoms.
Beneficiaries should not contact PI on-call services for pre-existing medical conditions, issuing repeat prescriptions, issuing referrals to other GHS services, or in cases where they do not have time to visit their Personal Physician.
The opening hours of the services are on weekends and public holidays at the following times:
- Saturday: 9.00 - 17.00
- Sunday and public holidays: 15.00 - 19.00
For their convenience, beneficiaries should contact the PI on-call services in their province by telephone during the opening hours of the on-call services. After an assessment of the health problem, an appointment is arranged within the day and during the opening hours of the on-call services. It is emphasized that, for the smooth service of beneficiaries, the services operate only by scheduled appointments.
