Medicare Rebates

You do not need to be referred by a  medical practitioner, but with an appropriate referral you may be entitled to a rebate from Medicare.

A GP may provide you with a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) under the Better Access Initiative.  In order to obtain a MHCP, book a long appointment with your GP. Discuss your particular situation with them and they will determine whether they consider this to be an appropriate mental health referral.

Alternatively, if you are linked in with a Paediatrician or Psychiatrist, they can simply provide you with a letter referring your child to Alison Wilby. No MHCP is required in this case.
