What does enrolling mean?
An enrolled patient is someone who has chosen Tend as their primary care provider. As an enrolled patient, you healthcare is subsidised by the New Zealand Government, so your appointments are cheaper. You can only be enrolled with one GP practice at a time. It's free to enroll.
* What is a CSC/Community Services Card?
This card can help with the costs of your healthcare. You must be enrolled with a GP to access Community Service Card holder pricing. Learn more about how to get a Community Services Card, and if you are eligible.
What is a 30 minute appointment?
For both casual or enrolled patients - if you have several conditions to discuss with your doctor and require more time, we recommend you contact our Customer Experience team and book a 30 minute appointment.
Casual patient fees
Online and in-clinic appointments
We welcome casual patients - NZ and non-NZ residents. As a casual patient you will usually be charged a higher fee as you are not enrolled with us and therefore not funded. Learn more about enrolled vs casual patients.
