Getting enrolled with a general practice (GP)

It’s free to enrol with a general practice – and many services for tamariki aged under
14 are free, including immunisation.

General practices normally charge a higher fee, often called a casual rate, for patients that
aren’t enrolled with their practice.

For more information about enrolling with a GP visit Healthpoint or call Healthline

Next steps in your child’s immunisation journey

Vaccinations are offered at different stages of your life, not only during early childhood.
Your child will next be invited to receive immunisations while they are at school.
They may also be offered vaccines at other times of their life, for example if they are
going to be living in boarding schools or halls of residence. Annual flu vaccines are
recommended for all children from the age of 6 months and are free for some groups.
COVID-19 vaccines are also recommended for some groups. For information on other
vaccines available throughout life, including for adults, visit Immunisations
