I posted a while back about how we got a prescription for much needed antibiotics within a few hours over the holiday period, not from our MT as neither she nore dentist were available. Yes we had to pay the higher cost but it was worth it!
The cost of a sector 1 consultation is standard, now €26.50, whether you are non-resident or resident and signed up to PUMA with an attestation. Only if the doctor has registered as one’s MT do you get the maximum reimbursement . Otherwise it will cost you more as less is repaid.
If the doctor is linked in completely then he does it instantly from his desk.
