I understand that life can be busy and you may need to reschedule your appointment from time to time. Please do your best to notify in advance if you are unable to attend your appointment and need to reschedule, via the Client Portal.
Cancellations within 24 hours or less of your appointment, will be charged the full cost of the session. This also allows for people on the waiting list to be offered a session in a timely manner.

Explained

You may be eligible to receive a Medicare rebate for your appointment. Your GP Psychiatrist or Paediatrician may write you a referral under a treatment plan. Currently there are 3 different referral plans that are eligible to receive a Medicare rebate:
Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP)
Eating Disorder Treatment Plan (EDP)
Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plan
The practice management software I use will process your Medicare rebate following your appointment for your convenience.

If you have private health insurance cover,you may be able to claim a portion of the session fee from your private health fund. You will need to confirm with your individual cover whether psychology services receive a rebate, the amount of rebate and for how many sessions.

No, you can only claim from one or the other.

I also support clients with WDOs, to assist individuals to pay off eligible fines, by accessing much needed mental health treatment.
