A standard consultation at PsychExchange is approximately 50minutes in duration. If you are referred by your GP and obtain a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP), you are eligible for a subsidy of $129.55 for up to 10 sessions with a clinical psychologist and $88.25 for a registered psychologist.
Due to the Covid Pandemic, in October 2020 the Federal Government introduced an additional 10 sessions per year for the next 2 years. This means the maximum number of psychology sessions for which you can obtain a Medicare subsidy is 20 sessions per calendar year. The referral for the standard 10 sessions involves an initial course of 6 sessions followed by an additional course of 4 sessions upon obtaining a review by your GP following session 6. The Covid additional 10 sessions however can be referred in a block of 10 sessions and does not require a GP review following session 6.
