Insurance

Understanding your coverage options

We want to make quality nutrition care as accessible as possible. While nutrition consultations costs are reduced by Medicare, this is usually only with a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) or Eating Disorder Plan (EDP) from your Dr.

There are several options that may help reduce your out-of-pocket expenses, depending on your individual circumstances and health fund coverage.

Some private health insurance funds offer rebates for consultations with Accredited Practicing Dietitians under their extras cover. We recommend checking with your health fund about your specific level of coverage.

  • Medibank insurance for Dietitians
  • HBF insurance for Dietitians
  • HIF insurance for Dietitians

    Our transparent, out-of-pocket pricing for private paying clients is $139 for an Initial Consultation (comprehensive assessment and initial strategy) and $89 for Review Consultations (follow-up support and plan adjustments).

    We charge the exact same rate whether you choose to see us in-person at our Eltham clinic or online via Telehealth.

    Yes, if you have a referral from your GP under a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plan (formerly an EPC plan) or an Eating Disorder Plan (EDP), you are eligible for a Medicare rebate.

    The current Medicare rebate is $61.80 per session. This means your out-of-pocket cost for an initial consultation with a CDM plan is reduced to just $77.20 and only $27.2 for review consultations

    Absolutely. Because our team are Accredited Practising Dietitians (APDs), our services are recognised by major private health funds (including Medibank, HBF, HIF, and others).

    If you have “Extras” cover that includes Dietetics, you can claim a rebate. The exact amount depends on your specific fund and level of cover, so we recommend checking with them directly prior to your appointment.

    We proudly provide specialized nutrition support for NDIS participants (including skill development and ARFID support).

    Our NDIS Dietitian services are fully covered per session under your NDIS plan funding, with no out-of-pocket expenses for the participant.

    We support both Self-Managed and Plan-Managed individuals.

    Yes. If you hold a DVA Gold Card, or a White Card with a specific condition relating to nutrition, your consultations with our Accredited Practising Dietitians are fully covered by the DVA with no out-of-pocket costs to you.

    A referral from your GP is required.

    No, we do not charge premium rates or surcharges for evening or weekend appointments.

    We understand that fitting health care into a busy work schedule is difficult, so our standard rates of $139 (Initial) and $89 (Review) apply regardless of when you book your Telehealth or Eltham clinic appointment.

    Our comprehensive corporate nutrition solutions start with a base package of $1,200, plus $185 per participating team member.

    This includes an initial strategy and goals consultation, engaging workplace initiatives, confidential one-on-one support for your staff, and data-driven reporting to track the health outcomes of your team.

    We strongly believe that high-quality, realistic nutrition care should be accessible, and we completely understand that the cost of living is tough right now. If our standard out-of-pocket fees are outside your current budget, please don’t let that stop you from seeking help. Here are a few ways we can make it work:

    • Speak to your GP about a Medicare Plan: If you have a chronic health condition (like IBS, diabetes, heart disease, or osteoarthritis), your GP can write a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan. This provides a $61.80 Medicare rebate per session. This brings your out-of-pocket cost down to $77.20 for your Initial Consult, and only $27.20 for your Review Consults.

    • Spread out your sessions: There is no rule saying you have to see us every week! We can easily design a customized, realistic plan where we only catch up once every 4 to 6 weeks, allowing you to spread the cost out while still making great progress.

    • Check your Private Health “Extras”: You might be paying for Dietetics cover without even realising it. A quick call to your health fund can confirm if they will cover a large portion of your consultation.

    • Use our Free Resources: If 1-to-1 consultations are simply not an option right now, please head over to our [Blog & Resources] page. We regularly post completely free, evidence-based, and anti-fad nutrition advice to help you get started on your own.

     

    If none of the above applies to you, give us a ring, and we’ll do our best to get you the medical nutrition therapy that supports you and your health goals without reducing access to other important medical services
