MBS ANSWERS

Can geriatricians bill items 145, 147 and 128 for phone consultations provided to patients in aged care facilities?

Context

It was my understanding that we can't bill items 145, 147, 128 over the phone in nursing homes. Is this still correct or do we have numbers equivalent that we can bill for consultations over the phone? I am getting inconsistent advice around this.
