Funding Options 

 

There are various funding options that may be available for therapy depending on your child's eligibility. These include the following:

 

• Private health insurance

Contact your private health insurer to see if you are eligible for any rebates as each health provider has slightly different policies.

 

• Enhanced Primary Care  (EPC) plan

This is a Medicare funded scheme that provides rebates for five allied health sessions each calendar year. Speak to your GP to see if you child may be eligible.

 

• NDIS funding

This is a federal government initiative for children with a disability. This practice is able to see families who are self-managing their funds only, as the practice is not currently registered with NDIS. 

 

• If your child is of Indigenous descent, they may be eligible for Medicare rebates for some therapy sessions. Speak to your GP or the clinic to find out more information.
