Session Fees
The session fee depends on session length and practitioner qualifications (Clinical and General Psychologist). Short (20 to 30 minutes) and long sessions (50 minutes) are offered. The balance is payable at the end of the session. The gap payment whether you see a Clinical Psychologist or General Psychologist is almost identical.
Medicare Rebate
Clients on a Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP) and a referral from a GP are eligible for the Medicare rebate. The rebate you are eligible for depends on the session length and practitioner qualifications. The rebate is available for up to 10 sessions per calendar year, including telehealth sessions.
Provided your GP MHTP referral is valid, after full payment of your completed session your invoice will be emailed to you. You can then submit your invoice to Medicare to claim your rebate. Medicare will then send the rebate amount to your linked bank account.
Couple sessions and reports are not Medicare rebated. Reports will attract GST.
Bulk Billing
Under exceptional circumstances, we will consider your request to be bulk billed.
Cancellation Policy
If for some reason you need to cancel or postpone your appointment, we require that you give us at least 24 hours’ notice, otherwise you will be charged your full session fee. This fee is strictly enforced. There are no Medicare rebates or TAC or WorkSafe reimbursements for late cancellations or missed appointments.
