Bettr is part of the White Cross and Local Doctors network – New Zealand’s largest privately-owned primary healthcare group. To access government-subsidised healthcare in New Zealand, you must be enrolled with a physical GP clinic - that means enrolling with one of our Local Doctors or White Cross GP practices.
Bettr is a virtual clinic, so although you can’t enrol directly with us, you can enrol with a GP clinic in our network, which will allow you to access our online doctors at the reduced enrolled-patient rate.
You can still use Bettr as a casual patient. This includes people enrolled elsewhere. Just note that the consultation cost will be a little higher, as your enrolment funding remains with your current clinic and doesn't help subsidise the care you receive from us.
✓ More affordable urgent care nationwide
As an enrolled patient, you’ll pay the subsidised fee at any Local Doctors or White Cross urgent care clinic in the country. With clinics in Whangārei, Auckland, Franklin, Palmerston North, and soon Christchurch, you’ve covered for urgent care wherever you go, saving over $30 per visit.
✓ Lower-cost online doctor visits – 7 days a week
See a doctor in minutes from your home, work, or anywhere that suits you.
✓ Connected care across our entire network
Whether you visit a GP, urgent care, or use Bettr online doctors, our clinicians securely access your medical history during the appointment – including recent test results and prescriptions – to ensure seamless and personalised care.
✓ Your health data is safe with us
We use advanced data security systems to protect your health information and are backed by a large, accredited, and financially stable healthcare group. We’ve recently made significant infrastructure upgrades to keep your information even more secure.
