REBATES & SUBSIDIES
Discounted rates may be available for health care card and low income individuals (during off peak times only and subject to availability).
Medicare rebates are available for individuals with a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP). Medicare provides a rebate of $98.95 for a 50+ minute session and $70.25 for a 20-50 minute session. You can access an initial 6 sessions and if appropriate your referring doctor may approve an additional 4 sessions (10 total per calendar year). You are required to pay the full amount at the time of your session and your Medicare rebate will be deposited into your nominated account.
You may be eligible for health fund rebates. Check with your insurer. If you have exhausted your Medicare funded sessions, you can use health insurance to claim rebates for additional sessions. You cannot claim both a Medicare and health fund rebate for the same session.
I am not NDIS registered but you may be eligible for NDIS funded services if you are self or plan managed. Check with your plan manager or the NDIA.
If you have a DVA card you may be eligible for subsidised services. You will need to get a DVA Mental Health Care Plan from your doctor and can access up to 12 sessions per cycle. I offer a limited number of fully subsidised DVA sessions so please contact me to see if this is available.
