Optometry NSW/ACT has launched a podcast series titled Optometry Talks, which aims to inform and educate optometrists about the practical business realities of being an optometrist in Australia today.
Each episode of Optometry Talks is jam-packed with advice and updates from the experts.
Episode 1, Navigating the locum space, is available online now.
For this podcast, Audrey Molloy, strategic communications and member liaison at Optometry NSW/ACT, spoke to CEO Andrew McKinnon about locum work – why do it, how to get started and what to look out for.
Episode 2, Help: I’ve just been audited by Medicare, provides guidance on how to avoid being audited and how to manage an audit, should it happen to you.
In this podcast, Ms Molloy talks to Paula Katalinic (professional services manager at Optometry NSW/ ACT), and Mr McKinnon about what billing practices make you stand out from the crowd, what’s involved in the audit process, and who you can turn to for support. Visit optometry.org.au/nsw
