What is different about healthcare & wellness in Australia
Enquiries for clinics, allied health and wellness providers in Australia often come through GP or specialist referral rather than search, and any practitioner-facing deal needs to record AHPRA registration status, since dealing with an unregistered provider creates real risk for a referring partner. Medical equipment and pharmaceutical suppliers additionally face the TGA's rules on therapeutic claims, so marketing copy in a deal's notes should avoid language a supplier isn't authorised to use about their own product.
Health information carries extra weight under the Australian Privacy Principles, so consent to store and follow up on patient or client health data should be captured and logged separately from general marketing consent under the Spam Act 2003. Corporate wellness programs tend to be sold into HR budgets that reset around EOFY on 30 June, creating a predictable buying window, while consumer-facing clinics see a seasonal dip over the Christmas–January break as people delay non-urgent appointments.
