Fees and Rebates

Lifespan Health is committed to delivering accessible care. Please see below important information that may affect the cost of your treatment. You are welcome to contact us to further discuss fees and possible rebates. 

Referrals

You do not need a referral from a GP to see Lifespan Health's psychologists. If you choose to use our services without a referral, you will need to cover the session fee privately. 

Private Health Insurance

Your private health fund may provide rebates for psychological services. Please confirm your eligibility with your provider before making a booking with Lifespan Health.

Mental Health Treatment Plans (MHTP)

Your GP, paediatrician, and/or psychiatrist  may decide you are eligible for a MHTP. A MHTP entitles you to up to 10 sessions per calendar year that are eligible for a Medicare rebate, which may reduce the cost of your treatment. For more information please click here. 

Cancelling Appointments

You may cancel or re-schedule your appointment at any time.
However, if you cancel within 24 hours of your appointment you will be charged a cancellation fee of 50%. 

Medicare Benefits

Medicare benefits are available for a range of specified psychological services, such as diagnostic assessment and support for children with autism. For more information, click here or contact your medical practitioner. 

Treatment Duration

Generally your initial assessment will be 50 minutes. Within this session your clinician will discuss the likely number and duration of future sessions.
