Session fees for clients accessing services using a Mental Health Treatment Plan is $190.00 incl GST with a $85.20 Medicare rebate. These fees for a 50-minute appointment, sit below the 2022 recommended Fee Schedule for Accredited Mental Health Social Workers in Private Practice of $270.00 per session.
Private Health Care Funds may also reimburse you for services provided.
Fees must be paid at the time of the appointment, and the Medicare rebate (or other rebate) will be processed at the same time.
If you are unable to attend, would like to reschedule, or cancel your appointment, please provide 24-hours’ notice, or 100% of the session fee will be charged. Medicare do not provide rebates for missed appointments.
What is an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker (AMHSW)? AMHSWs are recognised experts in the field of mental health. AMHSWs work with people across the lifespan and provide a unique contribution to the mental health space in their holistic approach to working with a person. The advanced training that is expected of AMHSWs prepares and provides them with the skills for working with people with very complex presentations and co-morbidities. AMHSWs meet some of the highest standards of professional regulation in Australia overseen by the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW).
