The Better Access to Mental Health Care Initiative allows eligible clients to claim a rebate for up to 10 individuals sessions per calendar year. Please discuss your eligibility with your medical practitioner.

You may be eligible to receive a Medicare rebate for your psychology sessions if referred by your General Practitioner (GP), Psychiatrist or Paediatrician.
