Fees, Rebates & Medicare
The scheduled fee is $195 for a 50 minute consultation.
Medicare Rebates
Medicare rebates are available to people with assessed psychological disorders for psychological treatment by registered psychologists under the Australian Government's Better Access to Mental Health Care initiative.
The rebate applies for up to 20 sessions per person per calendar year. The Medicare rebate is $88.25 per session.
You must be referred by your GP or psychiatrist. Your GP will need to complete a detailed mental health assessment and prepare a Mental Health Treatment Plan before referring you to a psychologist. Your GP must also provide you with a short letter of referral to your psychologist prior to your first session. Both the letter of referral and your Mental Health Treatment Plan will be required by your psychologist at your first appointment.
