If you have a chronic health condition and are referred by your General Practitioner (GP) as part of a Chronic Disease Management Plan (GP Management Plan), you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate of $54.60. A management plan offers up to 5 subsidised visits to allied health professionals per calendar year. This will be determined during discussion with your GP and Practice Nurse.

Please provide a minimum of 24 hours when cancelling or rescheduling appointments. This allows sufficient time to fill the appointment and reduce waiting times for others. Failure to provide sufficient notice, or to attend an appointment will result in a charge, half of the consultation fee. Dietitian’s discretion will be used in specific circumstances.

Rebates can be claimed for Dietitian consultations if you have appropriate extras cover within your Private Health insurance. Keep your consultation receipt for submission to your health fund. Many insurance companies now have apps to make claiming a breeze.

Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Health Cards (Gold and White) are accepted as payment upon a current GP referral (D904). DVA cycles of care were introduced in October 2019 to allow for 12 visits per calendar year to allied health professionals.
