Fees & Rebates

MEDICARE

With some chronic health conditions, your GP may choose to refer you through an Extended Plan of Care (EPC).  With this referral from your GP, your fees may be up to 100% covered by Medicare.  Discuss your eligibility for this referral with your doctor.  

PRIVATE HEALTH

Most private health insurance funds will provide dietitian rebates on individual consultations.   The rebate will depend on your level of cover. Please contact your health fund to see what rebate you will be entitled to.  No referral is needed to see us when claiming with private health.  You will be provided with an invoice, and receipt upon full payment, with which you can claim your rebate from your private health fund.
