Fees & referrals

Session fee and medicare rebate

 

The fee is $220 per session.  If you are eligible for Medicare rebates, the rebate is $141.85 per session, for up to 10 sessions per calendar year.  To receive Medicare rebates, a valid referral and Mental Health Care Plan are required.

​

In certain circumstances, such as if you hold a current Health Care Card or are unemployed, a reduced fee may be available; please discuss your circumstances with me.

​

Bulk billing is not offered at this practice.  Payment of the whole session fee is required on the day of the session.

​

Payment process

 

Payments are processed electronically via the practice management system.  After receiving your payment, I process the Medicare rebate for you electronically, so Medicare can pay the rebate directly to you.

​

Referral process

​

If you're interested in booking a session for yourself, you can start the process by filling out the Contact form.

​

If you're a doctor or clinician looking to refer a patient, please direct them to the Contact form.

​

You can attend sessions with or without a referral from your doctor.  You need a referral and Mental Health Care Plan if you would like to claim Medicare rebates.
