Item 8 (Domiciliary and Recalled Attendance) and Item 10 (Additional Payments)

Section VIII – Domiciliary Visit and Recalled Attendance

8- Domiciliary Visit and Recalled Attendance

• This fee is claimable for each separate attendance at each location.
• If more than one patient is seen in a single attendance to a location, such as may be the case at a care or nursing home, only one claim can be made under item 8-.
• The distance travelled does not impact the fee claimable. There is a single fee claimable for each attendance, regardless of distance travelled.
• The enhanced Domiciliary Clinical Examination fee has been removed, but the Enhanced Skills in Domiciliary Care Allowance (Determination XVI, Part 1) remains and has been updated.
