Fee information:
If you have an eligible Medicare referral, the Medicare rebate for an dietitian appointment is $60.35. After the Medicare Safety Net Threshold is met in the calendar year the amount rebateable via Medicare will increase to include 80% of the "gap"fee.
Your GP is the best person to speak to regarding types of Medicare referrals that you might be eligible for.
If you have Private Health Insurance, you can also speak to your provider about the rebate that you might be eligible for.
At least 48 hours notice is required to change or cancel appointments, or a cancellation fee will be charged (notice period excludes weekends & public holidays). The cancellation fee is 50% of the usual session fee if the cancellation is made within 24-48 hours, or the full session fee if the cancellation is made with less than 24 hours' notice. The full session fee also applies for missed appointments. These fees are not covered by Medicare.
For urgent assistance please call the Mental Health Hotline on 1800 011 511 or present to your local hospital emergency department.
