Salary Packaging

Under Australian Taxation Legislation, Bass Coast Health is able to offer employees access to tax concessions via Salary Packaging.

When employees Salary Package, they reduce their taxable income, therefore increasing their take-home pay. Salary Packaging allows employees to pay for items from their pre-tax salary.

At Bass Coast Health, a wide range of salary packaging options is offered to employees, including:

  • Capped Living Expenses– some examples include Credit Card Reimbursement, Mortgage Payments/Reimbursements and threshold card
  • Remote housing benefit options.
  • Non-capped items which include meals, entertainment and accommodation reimbursement, and a meal card.

Employees of Bass Coast Health can find out more about Salary Packaging options by going to the Maxxia website or by calling them on 1300 123 123.

Telehealth Information For Staff

BCH has access to the HealthDirect portal so that staff can conduct telehealth appointments with patients. 

Video Call has been developed by HealthDirect Australia to make it easy for healthcare providers to offer their services via video consultation. Consumers can connect with the relevant BCH clinician from their home, from work or from wherever is most convenient, using everyday devices: smartphone, tablet or desktop computer.

Virtual clinics have been setup to facilitate telehealth across a range of disciplines. Clinicians will be set up with accounts to process video calls in their respective clinics. Organisational support will be provided, with generic accounts that can see waiting callers across clinics to facilitate MasterCare admissions.
