Private Health

Most private health insurers will offer a rebate for psychological services.  These services may include

  • Individual Assessment sessions
  • Individual Therapy sessions
  • Couple or Family Therapy and
  • Group Therapy

Rebates will vary based on your level of cover and the type of service that you receive.

To claim a private health rebate you will need to be covered by ancillary benefits insurance (extras table).  Some health funds also require a medical referral.

All of our Psychologists are registered with the major private health insurers, however we recommend that you contact your fund directly to determine your eligibility prior to your appointment.

* Please be aware that if you are eligible for both a Medicare and private health rebate, you can only claim one or the other for each appointment. It is not possible to top up your Medicare rebate with your private health insurance.

How Do I Claim?

It’s so convenient and easy!   We use the HICAPS system to process your health fund claims on the day of your appointment.

After your consultation, your health fund card is simply swiped through the HICAPS terminal by our Reception staff.  Your claim details are entered and in seconds the whole transaction is processed.

Once your claim is authorised, you simply pay the gap amount – the difference between the full fee for the treatment and the amount claimed from your health fund.

Gap payments can be made via EFTPOS, Credit Card, cash or cheque.
