Medicare Rebates
Medicare rebates are available only if your GP completes a Chronic Disease GP Management Plan or Eating Disorder Plan. This must be provided to the dietitian in advance or at the start of your appointment. After payment of the full fee, you may be entitled to a rebate of $60.35 per visit for up to 5 visits per calendar year (or 20 with an Eating Disorder Plan) that you will receive from Medicare back into your bank account.
DVA
We are a registered provider with the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). DVA Gold Card Holders and White Card Holders with an eligible condition are entitled to bulk-billed dietitian consultations (no out of pocket expense). Your GP must complete a DVA referral form (D904) and this must be provided to the dietitian in advance or at the start of your appointment.
Private health funds
We are registered with most private health funds. Private health fund rebates may apply depending on your level of private health cover. The rebate received can vary so please check with your health fund provider prior to your appointment. Full payment is applicable on the day, and rebates must be claimed directly from your health fund provider using the receipt provided at your consultation.
Cancellation Policy
A cancellation fee of 50% of the sessional price may occur for non-attendance or if an appointment is cancelled or changed with less than 24 hours notice. Cancellation fees apply to all clients. Medicare and DVA do not cover cancellation fees so you will be expected to cover the costs of these. NDIS participants will have to pay cancellation fees from their funding if appropriate or may be expected to cover these fees in certain circumstances.
