House Call

I'm locuming today. Just attended a house call to certified death of an old lady who had just AOR discharged from a private hospital in town.

I wonder what is the going standard of attending house call by local GP nowadays... Any official/unofficial guideline? (will google for it later at home) What's the going rate I or the clinic should charge the party?

Any input from our colleague out there is very much welcome!

Thank you.

hmmm... the fees received would put the community in disgrace... I don't mind to go for free since the family drove me there and I was already paid by the hour for locuming.
However when the clinic staff gave me the wooping rm5, I felt like I've suddenly became so cheep! Dunno to laugh or cry...
