REBATES
*Medicare – A rebate of $60.35 is available from Medicare if a Chronic Disease Management Plan is issued by your GP. Please discuss your eligibility for a care plan with your GP. Examples of conditions that may qualify for a Chronic Disease Management Plan include: Diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2), Cardiovascular Disease, Kidney disease, PCOS. Note the rebate will be greater if you have exceeded the Medicare Safety Net – it is recommended that you register for this with Medicare to receive maximum rebates for all your health care needs.
Private Health Fund – Most private health funds provide a rebate on dietetic appointments. However, the rebate amount depends on your level of cover. To check if private health rebates apply, call your private health insurer and quote the relevant item number (initial 500, follow up 600).
DVA – I am an approved provider for DVA services. Patients with a gold card have no out-of-pocket expense as DVA covers the cost of your visit to an Accredited Practising Dietitian.
CANCELLATION POLICY
When an appointment is made, we have set aside a whole hour, especially for you. If you do not attend or cancel with little notice, we cannot offer that appointment to someone on the waitlist.
For this reason, we respectfully request at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. This can be done by emailing katie.lenhoff@outlook.com
If less than 24 hours notice is given a 50% of the consultation fee will apply.
