Practitioner’s time for travel to and from appointments outside of the clinic will be charged at your practitioner’s hourly rate for supports to the same funding line being used for therapy. Travel costs for time are capped at 30 mins each way in metropolitan and larger rural and regional centres (MMM1-3 areas) and 60 mins each way in smaller rural and remote areas (MMM4-5 areas). Travel costs for labour will be apportioned between clients where a worker is travelling to provide services to more than one client in a ‘region’.
Travel – Non-Labour Costs
Travel to locations outside of the clinic will also incur a non-labour travel charge of $0.99 per km. This may be charged both to and from your appointment. The non-labour travel charge is in addition to the labour travel charge of up to 30 minutes each way. Non-labour travel costs will be apportioned between clients where a worker is travelling to provide services to more than one client in a ‘region’.
Costs for non-labour travel will be charged to the applicable funding lines as set out in the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits.

Assessments
* The fees listed here are based on a standard assessment. If your assessment is found to be complex on review of your intake information and more time is needed, the fee will be higher. Should this be the case, our administration team will contact you with an adjusted quote.
* Your child may be eligible for a Medicare rebate which would cover part of the cost of the assessment (approximately $351.30). Your child would need to be referred by their Paediatrician or a Psychiatrist in order to access these rebates.
