Hello everyone,
Please do leave leave your comments on our last post about Medicare. We are really interested to read about what people think on these issues.
In response to several telephone calls - yes Richardson Support House counsellors bulk bill under the following circumstances:
You must have a referral from your GP and a Mental Health Care Plan (Form 2710). The plan covers you for six sessions.
Bulk billing is then available for pensioners, those with a Health Care Card, or those under 16 years. Other people will need to pay the gap - at the moment the gap is no more than $5 for counselling.
School holidays start this week in the ACT. Our children are very excited and will be joining us on the Heart Foundation ACT walks. Looking for a fun activity in Richardson? Come and join us on Mondays at 9.30am for a walk and morning tea.
This is also the start of NAIDOC Week. Here is the information:
