Appointment types and services
Medicare
You will most likely be eligible for a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plan. If you haven't used this plan for other allied health services already for the year, a GP could complete this for up to 5 Exercise Physiology sessions to receive $60.35 back from Medicare. This will be more if over the Medicare threshold.
You may need to advise your GP clinic when you make an appointment for the Medicare Plan that you are wanting to obtain a care plan, as many clinics have different procedures on how they do these, and you will likely need a longer appointment and/or an appointment with the GP and Nurse.
​
Private health insurance
You may be covered for Exercise Physiology services with your private health insurance. Please check with your fund as the level of cover and conditions can vary from one insurer to another.
*Please be aware that you can only claim on Medicare OR private health insurance for each session. It is not possible to make a claim with both for one session.

Jacqui cannot take on appointments for participants who are ONLY seeking reports. This is not the type of practice she runs and nor does she have the time in her practice for extensive reports.
Please note, although Jacqui is an extremely experienced clinician in invisible illnesses, unfortunately she CANNOT formally diagnose. This can only be completed by an experienced and knowledgeable medical practitioner or specialist.
Please note that NDIS reports need to be booked into the calendar and need to be billed for.
NDIS Report timeframes are MINIMUM 12 weeks following assessment and collection of information due to an already full calendar of this timeframe.
