Are you part of the NDIS?
This is a complex issue. NDIS as of 2019 for Physiotherapy offer a rebate fee of $191.00. At Upright Physiotherapy, we are not registered to cater for NDIS managed patients. As our company is small, the cost for set up and accreditation is too high for us.
However, we do manage self managed NDIS and non NDIA managed patients!

Fees for DVA follow the recommended costing and appointment will be 30 minutes long. Insurance/workcover sessions will be 1 hour long. Initial costs will be payable by the client until such time the insurers or work cover agree to the Terms of Service. This is rebatable from your insurer / work cover. After such time as the Terms of Service are agreed to, all claims will be made directly to your insurer / work cover.
