Allied Health Rebate Calculator

Medicare gives ~$60–$96 per session under a care plan; extras cover gives a smaller fixed amount.
Under a GP care plan, Medicare rebates a fixed amount per session for a limited number of visits per year. Otherwise you can claim a smaller amount through health-fund extras (but not both for the same visit).

How we estimate this
Allied health out-of-pocket is the clinic’s fee minus your rebate. Under a GP-referred care plan (such as a Chronic Disease or Mental Health plan), Medicare rebates a fixed amount per session for a capped number of visits each year.

Understanding allied health rebates in Australia
Allied health out-of-pocket is the clinic’s fee minus your rebate. Under a GP-referred care plan (such as a Chronic Disease or Mental Health plan), Medicare rebates a fixed amount per session for a capped number of visits each year.
Without a care plan, you can usually claim a smaller fixed amount through private health extras instead. You can’t claim both Medicare and extras for the same visit.
