Referral

A referral is not necessary to schedule an appointment with our clinicians. You have the option to self-refer by contacting us via phone or email. If you possess a referral from your GP, paediatrician, or psychologist through a government rebate system, you may be eligible for a reimbursement for our services.

Medicare

A General Practitioner (GP) will determine if your child is eligible for a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan. If the GP refers your child under a CDM plan, you may qualify for a Medicare rebate of $56 per session, applicable to a maximum of 5 allied health services per calendar year. Individuals meeting the criteria for a CDM plan (formerly known as an Enhanced Primary Care plan) usually require multidisciplinary team care involving a GP and at least two other healthcare providers.
