“Help! NDIS won’t cover appointments but I can’t afford to pay the gap”:

If you are able to access Medicare appointments (5-20 depending on which Care Plan) and you are a concession card holder/student we can arrange a series of 30 minute appointments to keep gap payments at just $18.55 each session). This will require more preparation on your end and progress may be slower. Medicare appointments 20 minutes or less will be bulk billed.
