Medicare Rebates
Medicare rebates are available for sessions if you hold a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan prepared by your GP. This enables you to claim a rebate on up to 10 psychology sessions per calendar year under the Australian Government’s Better Access to Mental Health Care program. You may also be eligible for 5 Allied Health sessions in addition to the 10 Medicare sessions.
