If you have a mental health referral from your GP, a rebate of $98.95 will be processed together with your payment. Medicare allow for 10 rebated sessions in a calendar year (from the 1st January to the 31st December each year). Medicare requires that you see your GP every six sessions for a review to continue being eligible for sessions.

You may also be able to claim a rebate from your Private Health Fund if you choose not to claim a rebate from Medicare or if you take this option after your have used all of your Medicare sessions. Most private health covers include psychological treatment and provide a rebate ranging from $40.00 to $220. It is advisable to check with your health insurer as to whether your specific policy covers psychological treatment.
