We are registered to provide Medicare services for chronic disease management and DVA . We usually bulk bill this service and remind customers these services are short sessions which require a GP referral and specific goal.

Private Funding
Private funding is generally required for local government and businesses requiring access audits and staff education on topics related to disability, ageing or diverse customers. Private funding is common for individuals seeking access advice on private dwellings, or other one-off assessment.

Concession Rates
Not everyone is eligible for government funded services and benefits. If you are local to the Blackwood Region and cost is a genuine barrier to getting the support you need, we can have a confidential discussion with you about your circumstances. We may be able to link you in a mainstream service, or provide a specific and reduced cost service option.

Payment
Everyone is currently sent an itemized invoice electronically after the service is provided to their nominated email or postal address. We are not offering an instant point-of-sale system like Eftpos or Hicaps, although this may change as demand for private services increases. if you are referred through Medicare, we claim your bulk bill benefit through HPOS.
