Rebates

• Private health fund rebates: It is your responsibility to check your coverage and eligibility with your private health fund and confirm if rebates apply to your psychological service. Unfortunately, we are unable to let you know how much your private health will be able to cover unless we have your physical card present to process a quote. Alternatively, you are able to contact your Private Health company to see how much they will cover for your sessions.
• Medicare rebates: If you are eligible for Medicare rebates, we are happy to assist in processing Medicare claims, however please note that we do not hold responsibility for eligibility or processing of Medicare rebates. Please note that Medicare does not currently provide rebates for couples therapy, cognitive assessments, parenting sessions when the child is not present, and some other specific situations.

Reports

• If you require a report to be provided by your psychologist, this will involve an additional cost and should be discussed with the psychologist. 

Cancellation Policy

• When appointments are booked, the psychologist reserves the whole hour especially for you.  Therefore we require 24 hours notice and the following cancellation policy is in place to allow us to offer the allocated time to another person who may be on a waiting list for that appointment.

A full fee will be charged for cancellation with less than 48 hours notice.

The FULL FEE will be charged for an appointment that has been missed with less than two hours notice (non-attendance). 

We understand that sometimes you may be unable to keep an appointment because of sudden illness or an unexpected personal emergency. If this happens to you, please contact us as soon as possible to explain the situation.  You may call our office at any time, even after hours, as we do have an answering service that allows you to leave a message.
