Health Fund Rebates & Medicare
|
Dietitian
MEDICARE You may be eligible for a rebate of $52.95 from Medicare for up to 5 sessions per year, if your GP has organised an Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) (also known as a Chronic Disease Management) plan. There will be an out of pocket cost. Please note - we are not a bulk billing service - all sessions will incur an out of pocket fee. You may be eligible for a Medicare rebate if your doctor has completed an Enhanced Primary Care Plan, or you can claim from your Private Health Insurance Fund. Skype/phone consultations – These are not covered by Medicare plans. PRIVATE HEALTH FUNDS If you have private health insurance, you may be eligible for a rebate on the cost of the consultation. For nutrition and dietetic consultations, Casey is registered with private health insurance funds both as a ‘dietitian (APD)’ and as a 'nutritionist'. Please check with your health fund to find out exact rebate amounts you can claim. SLiding scale policy |
Naturopath
PRIVATE HEALTH FUNDS If you have private health insurance, you may be eligible for a rebate on the cost of the naturopathic consultation. Rebates will vary according to your fund and level of your cover. Andreas’ services are listed with private health funds as ‘naturopathy’ and/or 'western herbal medicine'. Please check with your health fund to find out exact rebate amounts you can claim. |
Our consult fees are set at the rate we need to make our living expenses, so if you can afford that rate, please do pay it.
That said, we don't turn anyone needing help away just because they can't afford the consultation fee.
Casey has a sliding scale of $75-120 per one hour session. Every Thursday, we look to see what appointments remain unfilled for the following week and will offer them to people on the list.
If you need help quickly, let us know, and we will give you the next available appointment we have right away regardless of your ability to pay. This applies to both eating disorder and general nutrition clients.
Remember also that as an Accredited Practising Dietitian, Casey can offer Medicare rebate-able sessions to those with an approved chronic disease management plan from your GP (see above). If you're eligible this $52.95 rebate (up to 5 per year) can be applied to whatever you are able to pay.
