COUNSELLING NEWS:

HEALTH FUND REBATES NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR COUNSELLING:

As an Accredited Member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society I have held Health Fund Provider Status with the country's most prominent Health Funds. Over the last two years the number of health funds that offer counselling rebates has been reducing down to now only two: Medibank Private and Grand United. In order to be able to offer rebates to you for counselling sessions, the requirements to date have been quite rigid and quite costly with unfortunately, very little if not outright, poor service to me as the paying practitioner.

Over the course of this past year it has come to my attention that more and more clients have joined either BUPA or NIB; which do not currently offer rebates for counselling.  In giving this due consideration I have decided not to continue renewing my membership with ATMS as it serves very little if no purpose to myself nor to the majority of clients.  I appreciate your understanding in this decision.  If your health fund policy is coming up for renewal and you are anticipating the need for counselling in the future perhaps talk to your fund about what they cover or look into others to see if they can assist.

As you know I have endeavoured to keep my fees as low as possible, with providing longer consults at the same time. I am hopeful that these measures will more than counteract any loss of rebate that anyone may have endured due to this recent change.

Kind thanks and blessings.
Dawn

What a wasted effort.
