Private Health Funds

The Potential Ability Group Occupational Therapists are all registered health fund providers. The amount you can claim depends on your individual policy. If you choose to use your health fund to help pay for Occupational Therapy you will be required to pay on the day of service provision, you will be provided with a receipt and can then contact your private health provider to make a claim. Please contact our friendly office staff should you have any questions.


Medicare – GPCCMP (GP Chronic Condition Management Plan)


A referral from a GP is required which outlines a GPCCMP, or GP Chronic Condition Management Plan for the client. The GP will allocate the client up to five Occupational Therapy sessions (per calendar year) which can be used for assessment or therapy. Please be aware that there is a gap for this service and that accounts must be paid on the day of service provision - see our Fees page for more information.


Medicare – Mental Health Initiatives


Please note that The Potential Ability Group cannot accept referrals under any of the Mental Health Initiatives. To find a registered provider please contact Occupational Therapy Australia - SA.
