Fee Schedule
To ensure consistent and fair pricing for all, our fees are consistent across all funding types – NDIS, Medicare, private.
Please contact us for assessment pricing.
Note: It is your responsibility to confirm with the relevant provider whether any Medicare rebate/private health insurance is applicable.
For self-managed NDIS participants and private clients (include Medicare referrals) we require a debit/credit card to be stored on file for automatic payment at the commencement of the appointment. A paid invoice (receipt) will then be emailed to you.
Invoices will be sent out for any non face to face appointment items for manual payment.
For plan-managed NDIS participants we will email your invoice directly to your plan manager for payment.
Non Face to Face Supports
Time spent on ‘non-face-to-face supports’ that contribute towards the achievement of the participant’s goals will be invoiced separately to direct face to face supports.
Time spent communicating (including verbally, emails, phone calls, reports etc) with co-workers as part of a multidisciplinary team working with a child.- Time spent communicating with external service providers e.g. early educator/teacher, GP, paediatrician, external therapy providers, NDIS coordinator/planner.
- Specific resource development for home use e.g. communication placemats, visual schedules etc.
- Time spent analysing and interpreting clinical assessment data, and research undertaken which is specifically linked to the needs of a participant and to the achievement of the participant’s goals (e.g. researching options for assistive technology).
This list is not exhaustive, but represents the kind of activities that constitute non-face-to-face supports.
These items are charged at the same hourly rate as direct face to face supports, as per the table above.
Cancellation Policy
Cancelled appointments are a loss to three people:
- The client who is delaying their therapy progress
- Another client who has been waiting to see a therapist urgently
- The therapist who has spent time and effort preparing for the session
In the event that less than 2 business days’ notice is given to reschedule or cancel an appointment, or a scheduled appointment is not attended, the normal consultation fee will be charged.
For NDIS clients, as we hold your appointment day/time indefinitely, 2 long-notice cancellations will be permitted per quarter - frequent cancellations may lead to your appointment day/time changing or ongoing services being cancelled, to be fair to other clients waiting.
