Do I need a referral? What will it cost?
- If you wish to claim a Medicare rebate you will need a referral. *With a valid referral from your General Practitioner (under the Medicare Better Access Initiative; which is the most common form of GP referral) you will be eligible for a Medicare rebate of $87.45. This can be processed for you at the time of payment.
- If you have been referred under WorkCover Qld or under CTP funding the agency must approve the service before sessions can commence. Once the funding is approved the agency is invoiced directly and there will be no fee payable directly by you.
- If you are using NDIS funding to access services please contact us to discuss your needs and receive a quote for the requested service.
- You do not need a referral if you wish to claim private health rebates or are planning on covering the full fee without claiming any rebates. Private health rebates may apply; it is best that you check directly with your health fund as funds and personal circumstances can vary.
- If you have been advised by Open Arms (formerly VVCS) that you have been assigned Janelle Middleton for counselling your referral process is already complete and you will be contacted shortly.
