GP Psychiatry Support Line

The GP Psychiatry Support Line will continue to operate through the 2025/26 period.

This national service was designed to address a critical gap in care, helping GPs manage complex mental health cases, particularly in areas where psychiatric support is difficult to access. Since launching, the service has supported over 10,000 enquiries from GPs, with overwhelmingly positive feedback from clinicians nationwide.

By calling 1800 16 17 18, GPs are connected directly with psychiatrists who can offer their expert advice regarding the mental health needs of the patients.

  • GPs May Call to Discuss:
  • Medication Advice
  • Diagnostic Clarification
  • Risk & Safety
  • Management Planning
  • General Professional Counsel
