REBATES

 

You do not need a doctor's referral to see a speech pathologist.

Medicare - Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) Medicare rebates are available if your child has a chronic condition or complex care needs. Your GP will determine if your child is eligible. An EPC plan provides you with a rebate for 5 sessions per calendar year. 

Private Health Insurance Speech Pathology sessions can often be claimed if you have private health insurance. Contact your private health insurer to see if your policy covers Speech Pathology.
