REBATES

You may be able to claim either a full or partial rebate on the cost of your session through one of the following options:

  • The Better Access to Mental Health Care Initiative –  A Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) needs to be completed by your GP, psychiatrist or paediatrician. With a MHCP, a rebate of $128.50 can be obtained on up to 10 individual and 10 group sessions per calendar year. For more information visit:psychology.org.au. This rebate is only for psychology sessions and not speech pathology.
  • The EPC Plan (or Chronic Disease Management Plan) - The Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) program provides Medicare rebates for allied health services, for people who have a chronic medical condition. You may be eligible to claim a rebate through Medicare for these services if you have a chronic condition that is being managed by your GP under an Enhanced Primary Care Plan. A chronic medical condition is one that has been or will be present for at least 6 months. The EPC provides a maximum of 5 total rebates per calendar year for all Allied Health services. For further information, please contact your GP.
  • Private Health Insurance - Speech pathology and clinical psychology may be covered under some health fund plans. Please check with your private health fund to determine if you can claim a rebate on your appointment.
  • National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) - We accept plan-managed and self-managed NDIS clients. We do not accept agency-managed clients. Families who are self-managed, pay for the sessions and then claim back the cost of their sessions with NDIS. For plan-managed clients, the invoice is sent to the plan manager for payment. For psychology services there may be a gap that the family needs to pay on the day of their session.

PAYMENT INFORMATION

Payment of fees for speech pathology and clinical psychology services at Voices and Minds is required at the end of each session via Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) (unless the session is paid for through plan managed NDIS).

Please note:Third party payments will attract an additional 10% GST charge.
