A consultation during which the General Practitioner obtains a selective history and  examination of the patient to assess and manage the health issue.

Extended Service (Level C)

A consultation during which more complex tasks are required of the General Practitioner and/or when he/she is presented with several alternative diagnoses  requiring a detailed history, examination, possible investigations, and management.

Comprehensive Service (Level D)

A consultation involving the General Practitioner obtaining an exhaustive history, performing multiple system examinations, and the possible arrangement and evaluation of complex investigations to narrow down multiple alternative diagnoses and determine the best treatment going forward.
