Medicare (Chronic Disease Management)

Medicare provides a rebate of $61.80 for patients eligible under a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan.

 

To access this:

• Visit your GP to check eligibility

• Your GP will provide a referral under a CDM plan

• Bring your referral and Medicare card to your appointment

 

You’ll pay the consultation fee on the day, and the rebate will be processed — leaving a gap payment.

 

Important:

• Up to 5 sessions per calendar year

• Eligibility is determined by your GP

​

Private Health Insurance (HICAPS)

If you have extras cover, osteopathy is typically claimable. We offer on-the-spot claiming via HICAPS — you only pay the gap.

Check with your insurer for your level of cover.

​

If your injury is work-related, treatment may be covered under WorkSafe.

 

Bring to your first appointment:

• GP referral

• WorkSafe certificate

• Claim number

• Insurer details

• Any relevant reports or imaging

 

TAC (Transport Accident Commission)

If you’ve been injured in a road accident, you may be eligible for TAC-funded treatment.

• Any relevant reports or imaging

 

DVA (Department of Veterans’ Affairs)

We provide treatment for DVA patients.

• White Card: covered for approved conditions only

 

We bill DVA directly (no out-of-pocket cost if approved).

​

A valid referral is required and lasts 12 months.
