Book Appointment
To receive a Medicare rebate we must receive both a Referral and a Better Access to Mental Health Care Plan from a general practitioner, paediatrician or psychiatrist prior or at the time of the appointment.
All personal information gathered by the psychologist during the provision of the psychological service will remain confidential. No information will be released without a signed consent form. Exceptions to this are;
Additional cost not claimable through Medicare: Reports, letters, forms and consultations with other professionals. Costs are depended on individual requirements.
Medicare Rebate: Medicare rebates are available with referrals from Paediatricians, Psychiatrists or from a General Practitioner with a GP Better Access to Mental Health Care Plan. Please ensure your referral is eligible for a rebate.
Private Insurance: Private Health Insurance with ancillary cover rebates vary between funds and also the psychological service. Please make your own enquires with your private health fund prior to appointments. PPS is unable to process private health rebates, it is the client’s responsibility to claim their rebate.
