Funding Options
I Can Do It! Kids Clinic offers the following funding options:
Private Health Insurance
Medicare
NDIS
All I Can Do It! Kids Clinic staff are registered providers of Medicare Australia. This means that we able to utilise certain Medicare Schemes at our clinic.
The Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDM) is a scheme in which your child's GP determines their eligibility for 5x partially rebated allied health sessions per calendar year.
If your child only receives one allied health service (e.g. OT, Speech, Physiotherapy etc) then the GP may allocate all 5 sessions to your chosen therapy. If your child receives more than one therapy, then these 5 sessions will be split amongst the eligible services.
Please bring your CDM referral to your therapy sessions. You will be required to pay the full consultation fee and then you can choose to either claim your rebate in the clinic on the spot (receive the rebate back into a savings or cheque account) or you can take your receipt to Medicare to receive your rebate back in cash.
I Can Do It! Kids Clinic is registered with HICAPS which means that we can process claims from private health funds at the time of your appointment.
Please confirm with your Private Health Insurance provider that you are covered for Occupational Therapy services.
I Can Do It! Kids Clinic is currently registered with most health fund providers!
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a source of funding for children who are identified to have a significant and/or permanent disability.
Children who are over 7 years old will be assessed via eligibility requirements. Children under 7 years will be considered via the Early Childhood Approach, in which they do not need a formal diagnosis but do need to present with developmental delays to be considered eligible.
Successful NDIS clients can be managed in the following ways:
Self-Managed: where you pay for the sessions privately and then you can claim back the cost of the session from your child's NDIS plan.
Plan-Managed: where a third party (e.g. NDIS Plan Manager) manages the payment of services from your child's NDIS plan.
NDIA-Managed: Where services can claim directly from your child's NDIS plan to pay for services.
At this stage, I Can Do It! Kids Clinic is able to service NDIS clients who are Self-Managed or Plan Managed.
