How can I receive a Medicare rebate on my sessions?

The Medicare Better Access to Mental Health Care scheme (Better Access) helps make psychological treatment more affordable.

 

To receive a Medicare rebate under the Better Access scheme, you can only see a registered psychologist or clinical psychologist to whom you have been referred by your GP, psychiatrist or paediatrician.  Your GP will prepare a Mental Health Treatment Plan before referring you to a psychologist. The clinical psychologists with All Talk Psychology have a Medicare Provider number and, with a valid referral, the Medicare rebate applies.  

 

You can choose to go to any psychologist of your choice directly, without a referral. In that case the Medicare rebate does not apply. 

 

Can I ask my GP to see a specific psychologist?

You can ask your GP for a referral to a specific psychologist, your GP will take this into consideration but may refer to a registered psychologist that they  recommend.
