Medicare Rebates

Medicare Australia has a number of schemes that allow individuals to access a rebate for psychological services. The most common of these is the Better Access to Mental Health Care scheme. Under this scheme a referral may be provided by a general practitioner, psychiatrist, or paediatrician. They will assess your eligibility for a Mental Health Care Plan, and provide you with paperwork to bring to your first appointment. 

If you have a Mental Health Care Plan from your doctor, you will receive Medicare rebates of up to 20 sessions, at either $87.80 per session.

If you are under financial stress please talk with your psychologist in your session about what discounts or concessional rates she may be able to offer you, as she will consider every client’s individual situation.
