Fees, Rebates & Funding:

NDIS Funding

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding to eligible people with disability to access supports. Speech pathology may be funded under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living.

We accept self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants.

For more information, please visit the NDIS website.

Private Fees

Many families choose to pay privately for speech pathology. This means you can access support when it suits you, without needing a referral. Have questions? We're happy to help.

Medicare Rebates

Eligible individuals may be able to access Medicare rebates for speech pathology through a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan. Speak with your GP to discuss your eligibility and referral options.

Eligible individuals can access Medicare rebates for up to five allied health appointments per calendar year.

Private Health Insurance

Speech pathology may be covered under some private health insurance Extras policies. Rebates vary depending on the health fund and level of cover.
