NDIS
Q Psychology is able to support NDIS-funded clients who are plan-managed or self-managed (unfortunately, we cannot support NDIA managed plans). Please discuss your funding situation with our intake team. Q Psychology does not charge above the standard NDIS fee for any service.
Private health funds
Q Psychology is unable to directly process private health fund rebates. However, clients are able to seek these rebates independently if they are entitled to them.
If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment less than 48 hours prior to the appointment time you will incur 50% of the session fee. If we are able to fill the reschedule/cancellation, then you will not be charged. We do try hard to replace all rescheduled/cancelled appointments, but it is not always possible. If you do not attend your appointment and do not notify us prior to your appointment time you will incur 100% of the session fee. Medicare rebates are not available for rescheduled or cancelled appointments.
Payment is made at the end of each session either by credit card or cash. As long as your bank account is set up with Medicare then your clinician will be able to process any applicable rebate at the end of each session.Most private healthcare cover policies that are inclusive of allied health extras will provide some rebate for sessions. Please check with your private healthcare fund for your entitlement prior to attending your session.
Provisional Psychologists have completed at least a four year degree at University (three year undergraduate degree in psychology and a honours/graduate diploma fourth year). They are currently completing either a general registration pathway or a postgraduate Masters, Doctorate, or Masters/PhD. Provisional psychologists are qualified to provide psychological assessment and treatment under the supervision of a Board-Registered Psychology Supervisor and can provide affordable psychological care to our clients. There is no requirement for a mental health treatment plan or referral and therefore long-term psychological treatment without Medicare limitations is available via this service. Q Psychology is passionate about supporting the development of psychologists through these programs and is proud to be a placement location for Provisional Psychologists.
