Medicare 

United Minds deliver a range of Medicare services including Mental Health Treatment plans (MHTP), Eating Disorder Treatment & Management Plans and Chronic Disease Management Plans. A valid referral is needed for a Medicare rebate.

​

Medicare services are delivered by our Psychologists and Senior Psychologists. A senior psychologist is someone who has been practicing as a fully registered psychologist for 2 or more years. They may also have advanced training and/or unique practice experience and/or skills in a particular area. The fees for a Senior Psychologist are slightly higher than a psychologist.

Assessments are charged per hour and will depend on the number of hours required to gather data (clinical interviews, administer assessment tools), score assessment tools, interpret findings and prepare a report.  Please contact us for a quote 8692-9949.
