MEDICARE REBATES

*To be eligible to receive psychological services under Medicare, a person must be referred by their GP and in some instances by another medical specialist.

Speak to your GP about your eligibility to claim these Medicare benefits and the best person to make your referral.

Please be aware that the full session fee is payable on the day. The Medicare rebate is processed separately and paid into the bank account provided to Medicare.

Private health funds

Private health insurance policies can rebate a portion of fees with extras cover (specific rebates and annual limits vary). Contact your provider to find out if you are eligible for a rebate when seeing a clinical psychologist.
