Fortify Health Group offers a range of services for both private and NDIS funded supports, and has Medicare and private health rebated services available (dependent on eligibility criteria).
Medicare rebates are available for up to 10 sessions per calendar year under the Better Access to Mental Health Care initiative. These services require a referral from a GP or psychiatrist and a valid Mental Health Care Plan.
We also provide physiotherapy services eligible for rebate for participants with a valid Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDMP). Patients can access up to five sessions per calendar year.
Some of our services may be eligible to claim from your private health provider. Please note, counselling and provisional psychology services will only be accepted by some private health companies; please check with your provider to confirm your claim entitlements.
We provide psychology, physiotherapy, social work, support coordination and psychosocial recovery coaching for NDIS-managed, plan managed and self-managed participants as per the most current NDIS pricing arrangements. You must have a current NDIS plan with the relevant funding type to be eligible.
If you require a report/letter to be provided by your practitioner, this will involve an additional cost and should be discussed with your practitioner. Report writing is billed at an hourly rate.
Fortify Health Group delivers multicultural mental health services funded by the Brisbane South Primary Health Network (PHN) for no cost to eligible participants. For more information on eligibility and services available please click HERE.
We provide a range of diagnostic, functional capacity and clinical nursing assessments.
Diagnostic assessments may be eligible for Medicare rebates on the intake and feedback session with a Mental Health Care Plan.
A personalised quote will be provided, and hours required are dependent on other evidence already available (e.g. FCA, previous assessments, other reports relevant to condition).
Notice for Cancellations
All clients are required to provide at least one full business day for any appointment cancellation. This is necessary to manage our appointment schedule and be able to offer appointments to other clients who may be waiting for a space to become available.
Cancellation Fee
If a client fails to provide the required one business day notice for a cancellation, they will be charged the full fee for the missed appointment. This fee is necessary to cover the time and resources allocated for the appointment. Cancellation fees must be paid at or before the next scheduled appointment.
Medicare rebates and bulk billing is not available for cancelled appointments and therefore the full fee for the service will apply.
Alternatives to Cancellation
To accommodate our clients’ needs and preferences, we may be able to offers alternative options to in-person appointments, depending on your individual circumstances, including telehealth or report writing/information gathering.
You must have a valid referral from your GP to be able to access bulk billed and Medicare rebated services.
Initial appointments for new patients with Dr Gilbert are bulk-billed.
Follow up appointments require full-fee payment at time of the appointment, and after Medicare rebates, the out-of-pocket fee per session is $150 (Please ensure you have funds readily available to cover the full amount, as Medicare will reimburse the rebate amount directly to you).
Please note:
Dr Gilbert does not currently accept referrals for ADHD assessment or management.
