Medicare is Australia’s public healthcare system that provides access to a wide range of medical services, including mental health support.
For eligible Australians, Medicare offers rebates for psychological services through the Better Access Initiative, making therapy more affordable. This program allows individuals to receive a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from their GP, which can provide up to 10 Medicare-subsidized sessions per year with a registered psychologist. This significantly reduces out-of-pocket costs for therapy, ensuring that essential mental health services, like treatments for anxiety, depression, trauma, and more, are within reach.
Many private health insurance plans in Australia also cover psychological services, offering additional options for those seeking mental health support. If you have private health insurance, it’s worth checking your policy to see if you are eligible for rebates on therapy sessions.
At Online Therapies, we accept both Medicare and private health insurance, helping you access affordable, high-quality care tailored to your mental health needs. Contact us to find out how you can use your Medicare plan or health insurance for our psychological services.
